As described in this post, I was at loose ends and cast about for a project. Well, I worked on the blocks and I can now report that Scrappy Mountains Majesty (pattern by Bonnie Hunter) is now a top:
Fabric is from 10 or more years ago, and includes flowery calicos, blenders, and 1930's reproductions:
I also found that I had pre-cut squares of fabric suitable for watercolor quilts - remember them? And the fabric for the border had been in the stash for a very long time, maybe 20 -30 years? I have enough for a border and matching binding.
The border is black with small holly design.
I think I will quilt this myself on my trusty old Kenmore. It is throw sized. No rush however, no plans for this one.

Very pretty! I have made 2 small quilts from this pattern, hope to make more someday!
Oh wow, it is a lovely finish.
I had to come check out your DM quilt since I have been doing this for table runners. Such pretty scrappiness to your quilt. I think it is a fun block don't you?
Thank you for linking up to Put your foot down.
Congrats on finishing up this lovely quilt top! This project has been on my list for 10 years. STILL haven't made it yet. I'm green with envy over your project!
Looks beautiful to me, no matter the fabric age!
Love this!
This is so great and it makes me want to go camping!! It reminds me of trees in the forest for some reason
Very nice finish! Congratulations!
