Running Out of Raincloud Finish


I have another quilt finish to post! Two in a row, that must be some kind of record for me. This time it is Running out of Raincloud, which just needed the facings to be hand-stitched down and the hanging sleeve to be added. 
I added the facings at the BAMQ retreat in March, but they needed that hand-stitching on the back to be done to count this as a quilt finish. I got most of it done while keeping friend Jaye company while she worked on another very cool quilt in progress. Thanks to her for the excuse to sit and get my hand stitching done! Sometimes a change of venue is what I need to get unstuck and finish something.
More pictures of the finished quilt and the crazy amount of quilting I did on this one.
This was designed and made for the 2024 MQG challenge, but unfortunately it was not finished in the correct year to actually be entered. Oh well, I got it done anyways and learned a lot by making it. 

This is also another one to check off of my 2025 UFO Challenges list, that leaves three left to be finished: Temperature Quilt, Trinket and Bohemian Wife. I'm really glad I signed up for this UFO challenge thing, because I've gotten 3 out of 6 quilts finished now, by the halfway point of the year, too.
