Spiral Burst - complete

I finally finished this quilt a few weeks ago.  It is such a huge quilt that I just did straight stitching in grey for the quilting.  Then I added diagonal lines as well and ended up with a diamond pattern.  For the binding I used up the last of the bargello strips by just unpicking the previous stitching and sewing them together in one long strip.
