All finished but the binding

My Chocolate Covered Caramel Apple Storm at Sea is nearly finished.  I just have to finish the binding.

This shot does not really show the quilting very well, but I will explain why I did what I did.  I chose my quilting with a sea and water theme in mind. A lot of swirls and movement, some bubbles, and then some areas of calm.  Always changing.   Here are some more close ups.




I am especially happy with the back of this one.


 Thanks for following me on the journey of this quilt.  I am hoping to put it in some local shows, so I will let you know what happens, if anything with that.  
This was a fun challenge for me to push myself and my quilting, and I am glad I did it, and I am especially glad it is finished.
