It's nice to have an easy project in the works while working on one that will take a long time. This top is sewn together and staystitched around the edges. I'm not in love with it but it used up 5 yards of flannel and is very girly with all of those flowers. It is 56" x 70" before quilting.
I cut more strips and corners for Rattlesnake and then made 2 more blocks. There are 36 of these blocks in the quilt and I only have 19 pairs of corners cut so far. I have plenty of fabric, it is just a matter of deciding which ones I want to use.
it sounds like you are making quilts to just use up fabric :) is that the point right now? I have thought of making some more too mainly just to use up stash and practice more of the straight line machine quilting. I don't need them but if I don't mess them up I can donate them.
only a patient, expert sew-master could successfully complete that complicated rattlesnake pattern. and with stretchy flannel -- yikes! you amaze me, Wanda.
Wow, how industrious you are. I'm inspired by all you do and complete. I'm always adding to the piles I already have, and when I see you steaming ahead and getting yours done I'm more inclined to push forward. Thanks for sharing.

even with all the flowers, that quilt doesn't look all that girly to me.

ReplyDeleteEasy one? Are those inset seams? I like the design-can't figure out how you did it from the picture.
ReplyDeleteI need to do a quilt like that first one for a veteran's quilt. I like fast!

ReplyDeleteWhat a nice quilt! The Rattlesnake blocks are coming along nicely.
ReplyDeleteI love to have an easy project thrown in with harder ones. So much satisfaction from finishing a top. Nice.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty flannel quilt top. And yes it is very 'girly' that why I like it so much. (*._,*)
