It will still be a whilte before I get around to putting the sashing on, but when I'm ready to start, quilting as I go, I'd like to have the material ready.
OOhh I love the colors in Verna! She was my grandmother by the way. She did alot of embroidery work on quilts. She would have loved this one.
Those of my favorite colors. I had already made a lap quilt with these and a few more shades of those colors, and those were left in my stash. But I keep adding more of those colors. Maynot the exact fabric, but the colors.
I'm curious. Are you doing these in 6 1/2" or 12 1/2"? How many do you think you will use?
I'm making 12" squares. Making a coverlet for my day bed. I plan on having the top as a rectangle, like the matress, then at each end a separate rectangle attached to the top, and the same, separate rectangle for the front. In other words, instead of making just a square and throwing it on the bed, the two front corners will be open because the frame has front post. so the quilt shows more. I'm not sure how many I'll need, kind of measure as I go. I have 12 done, and probably 20-25-30 to go. LOL
