Hand stitching done...................


As usual, the last hand stitch went in at 10:30 p.m. so no full photo to be taken until today.  I knew I had to clean off the threads from the last quilt top on the design walls before I put up a finished quilt so it was too late to start that last night.

Today I have to cut the border for the I spy quilt and sew it on.  What would I rather be doing?


I would rather be designing a colorwash, also called watercolor by many people.  This photo shows all of the different kinds of fabrics I have used, clockwise from top center: batik, floral prints, Kaffe Fassett fabric, a mini batik and African fabrics with the center one being Liberty Lawn fabrics.  I need to cut some batik rectangles for the next one so I may indulge in that pleasure the first of next month.

  4. I can see what a nice neat and tidy job you did on your binding. So pretty all folded up so precise to see all the edges in photo.

    And love, love, love your Colorwashes… every one so different and yet a colorwash.

    Enlarged both photos and that shows me all the details and so much more.

  5. Well done in getting the pink binding stitched on and finished! Do you put a label on your finished quilts or wait to see where they're going?

    Love your many varied colorwash quilts!

    Hugs!
