Here it is then: quilted and bound.
My Rainbow Scrap Challenge quilt from 2016. The top has been finished for about a year, but now it's finally finished.
The quilting is quite simple: FMQ motif echoing within the "paws" and zig-zags in the block sashing, with gentle curves with the walking foot in the background space. I don't know why it took me so long to decide on that!
I like the whole top, but I think the back is the tops:
I just love the back! It makes me feel so happy!
Now just one more photo, over the railing:
Quilt statistics:
Size: 58" square
Fabric top: assorted scraps from stash
Backing: assorted solids, but mainly Bella
Pieced and quilted with Aurifil 40wt.: background with dark grey (2630), front with assorted colours to match the fabric, more or less.
this is my first finish for April's One Monthly goal, which I posted about here

Back or front, that's fantastic! How nice to have it done. I've loved watching it come together.
Gorgeous, gorgeous quilt!!!!
So happy to see this lovely quilt all done!! The back of the quilt is a delight, wonderful idea to have a giant Bear Paw!
Both sides are amazing. Congratulations on the finish xx
Hooray! It's great!
It's really two quilts in one if you ask me as I agree, BOTH sides are amazing!
WooHoo!! Congratulations.
Brilliant finish. The back is wonderful too!
Beautiful quilt. I love it. Those colors are gorgeous.
Congratulations on the finish! I think this counts as a double-sided quilt, since both sides are equally striking.
Oh so very pretty! Love how black just makes those colors shine. Congrats on the finish!
What a great scrap quilt! I can't decide which I like more -- the back or the front. They're both great!
You have a beautiful, beautiful finish - I love the back too! On behalf of the 2018 FAL hosts, thank you for finishing along with us.
Fabulous! I appreciate your comments about your process along with the photos.
Marly, it's a beauty! The back is a great, fun surprise. Bravo!
Wonderful quilt! Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and congrats on your finish.
This is a wonderful quilt Marly, and you are absolutely right the back is the tops.
Congratulations on your finish, your quilt is so beautiful! I love it
