Second finish for August 2024


I wasn't sure I would finish the binding on this one last night but it was done by 9:30 so I had plenty of time to photograph it too.  Since it is small I could do the photography in my main floor studio.  I don't like to go down to the basement late at night.





This neutral color batik quilt is 49" x 65" and has Hobbs 80/20 batting in it.  Most of the gray fabrics in it lean toward blue so in some light they look gray, in other light they look blue.  My longarm friend Robin quilted it with a gray-blue thread.

I'm really happy with the striped binding.  It is very subtle but adds a little excitement to this quilt.

  2. Gorgeous finish on this Wanda; I love that checkerboard border:)))
    We;ve gotten 0.36" of rain since midnight--that's what I mean--just little bits of rain...maybe more is on its way. We really need it...
    63 here this morning and in the space between these sprinkle showers DH is out putting up a new motion light off of our tv room. The way this house is situated we don't get a view out to the front,,,so this will give us a heads up for any visitors: human or animal;)))
