Ugly Christmas Sweaters completed quilt

Talk about being late, lol. Here is my completed Ugly Christmas Sweaters quilt. This was a really fun QAL that was hosted by Lorna of: Sew Fresh Quilts. The completed quilt measures 42"X50", and is backed with an aqua geometric print fabric. The binding is my favorite color, kelly green. Simple machine meandering quilting was done. Batting is Warm N" White©.
I did take some liberty on the lowest right corner block. That one features a fussy cut Grinch® fabric, and is actually paying homage to an actual sweater that I have had for many years. Be sure to go visit Sew Fresh Quilts for some fun activities and great quilting tips. Thank you Lorna, for this awesome QAL as well as for the never-ending link party. There is also a Flickr group for this QAL.
