The Largest Quilt She's Ever Made - Part 7 - Basted!

Smooth sailing today. Phew! I got the backing sewn together, and then my most amazing and wonderful husband spent an hour out on the driveway spray basting with me. I don't know how I could have done it on my own. 
And you may think I'm odd for doing it on the driveway, but I've learned a messy lesson in overspray, so I avoid spraying it in the house.
All done and glorious!!
 In case you are wondering, I use June Tailor Quilt Basting Spray from Joanne's. I like that I can use coupons and it doesn't end up that $$$.
 And now it is rolled up, waiting in my studio, begging me to get started. But it shall wait til Monday. I met my goal of getting it done by the 28th. *Pats self on back*
My new goal is to have it quilted and bound by August 8th. I'll keep y'all updated with my progress.

      It is so huge!! There are nowhere in my house I could lay that thing out without removing tons of furniture from the room. LOL.
      It is currently measuring 116" x 102"
