Baby Tahoe is Finished

We are finally here!  The Baby Tahoe quilt top is finished!

Since this quilt is a smaller version of the original Tahoe quilt, I was fairly surprised with how well it came together.  Don't get me wrong, the tiny 3/8-inch diamonds were a chore to line up.  I'm proud of myself for not giving up, when it got frustrating.

My Baby Tahoe quilt top measures 32 1/2 x 32 1/2 inches square, compared to the Tahoe quilt, which measures at 84 1/2 x 84 1/2 inches square.  Although it's not a miniature sized quilt, it is approximately a third of the size of the original.

Did I come close to replicating it?

I had placed a dime, to show just how little the 3/8-inch diamond is.

I have purchased the batting and I'm hoping to be able to get the backing fabric today.  Now, to figure how I'll quilt it.

Till next time,

How Does It Look?

I'm in the final stretch of the Baby Tahoe quilt.  I'll have each of the wedges pieced together with the background fabric.

I had to layout the pieces to see if my miniature quilt looks like the original Tahoe quilt.

How close do you think it resembles the original?  I'll have a better idea once it's pieced together.

Til next time,
