Here is a partial picture of the completed quilt. It is quite large - 93" x 110" Yesterday, I bought a king sized cotton sateen bed sheet for the backing. I was planning to snow dye the back, but when I got home, I realized I am out of soda ash.....so cannot dye it until I get some of that. Usually, I purchase a big bag of soda ash from a pool supply store, but honestly, I am not doing all that much hand dyeing these days (I have been out of soda ash for nearly a year!) I am not sure I need to purchase a 40 lb bag. It is a special trip to a pool supply store (and I have to find out where, because I think they have relocated since I last purchased a bag). I might just pick up a small tub of it from a hardware store that keeps supplies for hot tubs.
