I finished the binding last night while watching TV. I really like this bright cheery quilt. It is about 52" x 59". I showed the backing fabrics a couple days ago, 3 strips of Kaffe fabrics with gold/orange in all of them.
In this close up you can see that even though I used a busy print for the binding, it reads as a solid from a distance. If you go back a couple days you can see how I choose bindings.
I baked 2 batches of cookies and finished cleaning up the basement yesterday. I'm expecting the art quilters group today. It is going to be cold but no snow storm.
It is a bright and cheerful quilt... we got the snow here.... more than we had 2 weeks ago! about 9" in the yard.... not sure about the driveway yet.
ReplyDeleteWe sure have needed bright and cheery lately. Have fun with your friends today. Chris

ReplyDeleteI really like that quilt. It reminds me of slices of layer cakes. Is there a pattern? I don't remember if you said earlier. I guess I could just troll back and see. Anyway, I do like it. A lot!
