Tranquil Waters
Got this longarmed and bound all in a day! While the pattern is Missouri* Double Slice, the fabrics remind me of the ocean and beaches. I chose Celtic Waves for the quilting, a 80/20 cotton wool blend for the batting, King Tut thread, Batiks are Sandpiper from 2 layer cakes from Hoffman (from 2015). I drove 2.5 hours to Lunn Fabrics to try to find border fabrics and it was worth the drive, and, I didn’t buy more fabric either! The backing is a wide back from Zen Chic, that is the softest, silkiest backing I have ever felt, it’s white with grayish green writing that really matches the outer border perfectly, it is 77 x 100 and will make a great couch snuggler.
