I LOVE how this quilt turned out!! This is a quilt that I made for me, and that's a pretty great feeling. I really whipped this one out quickly!
For the backing I used a mellow Kona gray pieced together with white and some pretty scraps from the front. I used the stripey fabric for the binding, and it is just so much fun! I think I'm going to use stripes for binding more often because it's so jaunty!
So here's a close up of the quilting I did. It's just a basic free motion meandering design, and I like the way it turned out.
If I ever do this type of stippling again I will have to try and keep the stiches a bit farther apart, and that will make the quilt even more comfy. Although, it's pretty comfy already!
It looks great! Bigger than I thought it was too :) I do so enjoy the stripes for the binding, and I enjoy that you called it "jaunty"
ReplyDeleteI love it Kate, beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIts beautiful! I would love to try this quilt but the original poster said the finished blocks will be 7" and the math seems like they would be 8" ? Just wondering what you experienced when making the quilt! Thank you! :]
