Ta-Dah! Bobbin Roll Complete!

Final three blocks: Books, Glass, and Coral.

That's it!  Thirty-five blocks complete!

It was quite a quick process to line them up in order and satin stitch the blocks together.  It's makes a wonderfully colourful 'scroll'.  Fun and bright, just like I wanted.
This is how the top of it looks, with the blue fabric around the wooden bobbin that was the start point for the project.

 And this is what it looks like from the back.  Almost all the blocks are backing with my husbands old work shirts (thank goodness for retirement!), each labelled with the number and subject, so I couldn't get muddled.

The whole scroll is now rolled up around the bobbin, and has been sent off to Switzerland. 

Big thanks to 'Swiss Suz', PatCHquilt, and all involved in making this almost year long project a fun one to participate in.

The bobbins will be on display at various places around Europe over the next couple of years, even, I believe, at the Festival of Quilts in 2024! 

Another project complete, time to move on to something else!
