YaHayyyyy I finished my first full size quilt this year, I am so
pleased I put the commitment in at long last.
Its been thrown in a basket for almost a year & Sophie's been
minus a much desired new quilt on her bed.
Well no more wishing she got her quilt & even slept with it last night.
I think it was a successful sleep
I was tempted to keep it for my wicker chair'
but sure that would be totally selfish...wouldn't it ??????
I kept the quilting nice & simple, straight line, no hassle, no steam coming out my ears
just sew handy lines back & forth accross the quilt
Easy peasy.
I finihed with a cute green fabric for the binding.
Actually it was all I had that looked any bit decent & I just was
not going to wait while I ordered something else.
Works ok though.....doesn't it :)
So another finish on the way in a day or two. depending on my fingers.
Off I go.........
Have a sweet week
Lots of love Karen x

I am super pleases to have done it, kind of gives me incentive to finish
more of my WIP's.
Finished painting my kitchen today, think I'm on a roll.
This is next, just gotta weave in a few hundred ends
Off I go.........
Have a sweet week
Lots of love Karen x

It's totally great! I know you're so happy that you finished. It's so satisfying when you finish a long project, isn't it? And it turned out so beautiful. I think that green edging is perfect. Can't wait to see the pretty crochet next!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is so beautiful, I love the triangular squares (I am sure they have a real name but I am a little green in the quilting department!) I am so inspired to create my own quilt looking at this, it will be much smaller of course being my first ever! The colours are so pretty!
