Finally: Black and White Blanket

I started making this blanket about 2 years ago. First, I collected a bunch of black and white fabric - and then it sat around for 6 months or so. Then I pieced together the quilt top, and that sat around for about a year. Then I bought the fuzzy green flannel for the back, and quilted it - then it sat around for a few months. Then, finally, last week I gave it to my mom to bind (I can't do bindings) and now, finally, it is done! Its been a long time since I made a blanket - and I think I'll start doing more. There is just something so cozy about snuggling up with a homemade blanket.
