Sanctuary HST quilt done!

I can now finally say that my Patty Young Sanctuary HST quilt is done! The top had been done almost a year before I finished the back, quilted and binded it. I am so happy with how it turned out. Especially the quilting and pieced backing. I had first posted about it HERE.
 this was actually a quilt kit that I had put together based off of the pattern from Quiltstory. It's a great HST pattern and even better a free tutorial.
I really loving how the pieced backing turned out. I really love the main fabric used in this print, with it's fun bright colors.

 I have to admit that my free motion quilting skills have come a long way... with each quilt I do it gets better and better. This one turned out pretty good, not perfect but getting there.
