Celebrating My Own Smith Mountain Morning!

The borders are on, it's ready to quilt and I am super happy to have this done. Much sooner than I had expected but this week I was free to sew without distractions, no little boy and DH is away in Colorado!
It went together so nicely, all the outer border pieces fitted perfectly without a whimper and it's nice and square. I have another quilt that needs to go on the longarm first, I have been waiting on the backing, then I can mail it back to it's owner, but after that I will quilt SMM, maybe even later this coming week, woohoo, can you tell that I am excited about this one!
I went to Bernina Connection on Friday, they have a huge sale, so I picked up backing for SMM at 75% off.
And then just for fun a bit of this Goanna and Snake fabric to add to my Aussie fabric collection-truly I need to make a quilt with them perhaps this will inspire me!

Your SMM is beautiful. I love it when I am anxiously waiting to get a quilt on the frame. Good for you to have your backing ready and I'll bet you already know how you are going to quilt it.
