Sweet Spring Baby Quilt - Almost Finished

I've been working away on this quilt and am now finished with the quilting.

 Size prior to washing: 43" X 49"

 Quilting Threads: Fil-Tec Glide and some Madeira Poly Embroidery thread (the latter of which has been in my stash for well over 10 years).

The 1/2-inch inner dark orchic inner border is a Mary Ellen Hopkins for SSI fabric--from more than 20 years ago.
Batting:  Hobbs 100% cotton.  It too has been in my stash for years.

 Charm squares:  Eclectic by Moda--in the stash for several years.  The border fabric was some extra from the same line.

 The darker aqua setting triangles are a solid that has been in the stash for years--most likely a Kona solid.

 Pieced on a treadled Necchi BU from the late 1940's. Fancy leg Singer treadle from 1919.

 Quilted on the treadled Necchi and a 1936 Singer 15-88 (actually it's a higher number--whatever the number is for the one that was convertible between treadle and electric).  Straight leg treadle. 

 The back of the quilt:  pieced from extra 4 patches, a bit of the Eclectic aqua print, a blue print gifted to me by a friend, and a Hoffman batik purchased almost 20 years ago.

Next steps: label, binding (same Mary Ellen Fabric--but I haven't cut it yet), laundry, post office.


Bonus Quilting Tip:
The Madeira thread was cross wound, so I needed to use my thread stand, but the thread kept tumbling off the cardboard core.  I just put another, larger spool on the thread stand and slipped the troublesome spool into the opening.  Worked fine.
