Another UFO bites the dust:
I really enjoyed the piecing of Sweet Dreams from Pat Sloan. And when she got to combining these blocks for the center, I liked it and decided I would quit there. I had already purchased the blue to put around the border and the print which ended up going on the back. And I knew I didn't have enough to make the larger size.
I altered it by adding the sashing between the 9 inch blocks. I kept thinking of how to add another setting strip around it, but the half square triangles would not come out even.
I also made the binding out of the same blue print. 
So I did a lot of straight line quilting to finish the quilt with my walking foot. As it is just a stash buster and not destined for any competition, I stopped.
I did add a rod pocket and I will give it to the sweetheart who has the matching quilt.
So what to do with the rest of the scraps?????????
that turned out well - baby size?
ReplyDeleteThoroughly enjoyed your Colourful post. Like this quilt here, they are all beautiful. I especially loved your large star quilt. Happy stitching from me!
ReplyDeleteIt turned out so well. What size is it? Like Karen above I wondered if it could be used as a baby blanket. Such pretty soft colors.

Such a soft and pretty quilt. I love your blue border and the backing is perfect. Great finish.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the comments. Yes, it is baby size. The blocks are 9 inches bringing the total size to 36 inches squared.
