Finished!

Introducing my flying geese quilt:
I quilted this on my home machine using the straight line technique.

Instead of pinning for ever I used this quilt basting spray. It turned out well, I was very impressed, there was only one area where it puckered.
Right there in the middle but it doesn't bother me too much. Its on the back side.
Heres a little snapshot of the corners...they are my favorite.

When the corners match up perfectly you feel like you've done something right!
The colors are plain and not my favorite however I made this for my nephew. He is 8 so I didn't want it to be boyish or even girly but still kinda cool. I think I pulled it off?

And here is the picture of the whole quilt.
It measures 50x70. Its already been washed and has a new home.
It was a gift for my nephew for his birthday.
