I have finally finished the top of Celtic Solstice!!! Here is a picture of it on top of my bed. I made the king size and it is BIG. (Especially on my queen size bed.) This hangs to the floor on all sides and it is a fairly tall bed.

I don't really have another way to take a picture so you can see the entire top as it is windy and snowing outside right now. I will just take that picture after it is quilted. Here is a picture slightly closer up of the top and one of the border.

I decided I liked the zig-zag effect the Tri-Recs made when placed like they are here. I also decided to stick with the scrappy theme of the quilt and added the green borders as two sets of two inch strips pieced together instead of just one green fabric.
Overall, I like how it turned out. I'm glad I decided to make this and it is officially my first
Bonnie Hunter quilt. I have followed her online for a while and always enjoy seeing all her quilts and classes and travels. What a delight it was to make this and also to see all of the other Celtic Solstice quilts that were made by her other followers.
I will get started on Molly's quilt soon... I went by the quilt shop and picked up my coordinating border fabric for the pattern. This one should go by much quicker as it is only going to be a twin size!
