I didn't even have this top on my list of ones to finish because I thought I was going to add a border. I made the decision yesterday to just finish it as is. I chose a gray leaf print for the back and there is a pebble or mosaic type fabric on the left edge that I'm thinking will be the binding. I need to carefully ditch quilt this one because I don't want quilting all over the top. This batik top was made 5 years ago using the Hattie's Choice die from Accuquilt. I have another top that also wasn't on the list and have chosen backing for it too. I have 4 now lined up to quilt on my Pfaff. The total number of tops waiting to be quilted is 17 and I'll be sending 2 to my longarm quilter this week.
Your Hattie’s Choice blocks made a gorgeous quilt! I especially like the border fabric you selected. Sounds like you have quite a bit of ditch stitching ahead of you but wow, what beautiful fabrics to be looking at while you quilt :- )
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! Looks like jewels! You are really cranking thru your tops to get them finished!
ReplyDeleteyep that is a beauty for sure
ReplyDeleteI totally forgot about this one ~ truly a treasure. I can well imagine the quilting time you will have to put into it.
ReplyDeleteLovely backing choice and I agree that no border is needed!
ReplyDeleteThat is a beauty!!
ReplyDeletethat is a pretty quilt I don't remember you showing this one. I need to look and see if I have this die it looks familiar to me.
