Second finish for February 2021


All I had left to do on this quilt was the binding which I did yesterday.  I have been calling it rectangles and daisies.  It is 46" x 64.5", a nice size for someone to snuggle under if sitting in a chair.









The back is 3 long pieces leftover from other quilt backings.

This was just a quick little quilt made between major projects and also helped to use some of my full box of 2.5" Kaffe fabric strips plus 3 orphan blocks.  There is at least one Brandon Mably fabric in the rectangle squares and a couple Martha Negley twig stripes.





The all by machine binding is a Brandon Mably dotted stripe so several colors show up on the edge but it is mostly red.  It looks good with the 2 red print strips on the back.







I love this pink cactus.  It has 4 blooms right now.


 I'll have my monthly recap tomorrow.

Hi Wanda. I love rectangles and daisies! It’s a lovely little quilt! I’d be hard-pressed to decide whether to cuddle up under it or hang it on the wall where I could gaze at it all day. Good finish! Beautiful blue sky here today; hope you’re getting some of that, too! Terry in CO

I've always liked the combination of your daisies and rectangles. The daisies make this quilt a fun 'one of a kind' design.

Always a treat to see another pretty pink cactus blossoms. . . Just when I've given up on my one and only cactus two tiny buds appeared yesterday. How many cactus do you have ? Maybe I need to get a couple more, so it has some competition ,

Like the idea of adding the three large blocks in this quilt, rectangles and daisies sounds good to me!! KFC fabrics always look beautiful in any pattern and I love them when cut in strips/rectangles.

Adding the 3 blocks really makes this a special quilt.
