Finish # 21 for 2017......

I finished the binding on this wonky 2 rail fence quilt last night.  It is  63.75" x 79".  

Here is the post where I was just starting this quilt and the book that has the instructions.




I bought this backing fabric on sale earlier this year with nothing in mind for it.  When I started looking for the back for this quilt I knew it was a good fit.







This is one of my favorite cactus plants with light pink flowers.  It is the plant that I accidentally broke a big piece off in the dark one night.  The piece I broke off is rooting in a glass on my kitchen windowsill and is the one that has 3 buds.



You can see the shade of pink better in this photo.

  1. I made one of those in bright batiks, but it was given away, I have a lot of 6" strips that I could make another one.... or two. Beautiful pinks!

  2. I wasn't sure I was going to like this quilt, but it is absolutely stunning! Love it! My giant Christmas cactus has no buds on it for the first time ever. :(

  4. "Two Rail Fence" and I called it zig -zag. It is one viberant design and always your fabrics are too. You have really worked it into another master piece Wanda. Still thinking about buying a Christmas cactus. They are every where right now and your continual photos are quite influencing. (*._.*)

  7. Perfect backing fabric. It just enhances the quilt and looks like you bought it with the intent to make it part of this quilt. Lovely, Wanda!
