I wish you could see the crinkly wrinkles a bit more, but it's difficult on the line. Believe you me, it's lovely. I tried to photograph the texture a bit better from the side, but no luck. Sorry, guys!
So many of you were fantastic as I was trying to work through my bubble troubles. Can you see that bubble now? It was there between the orange corner block and the blue orange block just to the left. Up near the binding. Go on...zoom in. You still may not see it. It is perfectly lost in the crinkly goodness.
And the back? You see the texture a bit better here, I think.
Finally I tossed it up on the wall between our back garden and the field next door. It was a spectacular day here in a super crappy summer, so I could not resist just carting a fresh quilt around the garden and having a little photo shoot.
Awesome, awesome, awesome. This is my first thing checked off my Finish Along list for this quarter. Doesn't that always just feel great?

Cindy, your quilt does look AWESOME!! I love the wrinkles and they do show on the close-ups, don't worry. I'm in loooove with the back! Pinwheels are my all-time favorites and these are gigantic ones, such a neat idea! Congratulations on your finish, now let the happy dance begin! :) WHOOP WHOOP!
Looks beautiful! I love the crinkles! I love feeling the bumps! Your pictures are gorgeous! Wonderful finish!
Fabulous! The back is so cool too.
Just wonderful--front and back!
very very pretty and i could see the crinkly comfyness to it!! The bubble got lost and i love when that happens too. (on the funny side, my husband and I were just looking at the last picture just as interested in the hay... why do they stack the square bales on end like that? We have a bunch of horses in Texas so any hay pictures get us pretty excited!)
It's wonderful and I am so happy that the bump is all gone. I am so excited to get grannie squares of my own.
It looks so great! I went to check it out, but it was gone. Well done! Oh, and you really do live in a beautiful place.
The front and back are equally lovely. So glad the wrinkle faded into all the crinkly goodness.
That is rather fabulous :) You're right, in all the quilting and crinkles, any bumps just disappear!
It looks so happy! It will be cherished by the new owner, I'm sure!
so lovely and bright and love the crinkly-ness!
You're so lucky to have such a terrific view. :D Wonderful job on your quilt. I love the back and how it makes it a perfectly reversible two-for-one quilt!
So gorgeous and love the back,fantastic.Great job!
Your granny is fabulous!
P.S. I've just read Sarah's comment and now have an image of Les Dawson in my head! I can't find the one of them gossiping over the yard wall but this'll give you an idea! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agUlIGW4ya0
I love the co,lours of this quilt on the grey background. And it does look fabulous over the wall!
Oh, it's gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your Granny Mania quilt in all its photoshoot locations.
Beautiful!! I love the shot on the wall :)
