Just finished this quilt from a kit I purchased over 10 years ago. It is much smaller than it was supposed to be because I had misread the instructions and had cut several squares too small from the first color. So I had to reduce everything down which resulted with a much smaller quilt. It was the first time I had ever made a pieced binding. I had enough scraps to make a pillow sham and mug rug.

Whoa, that gorgeous!! I love the gredations of color and the 3D look. It looks like a piecing challenge. And your pillow sham and mug rug are eye-popping pretty as well. Your sewing room is a dream space, which I'm sure you are pleased as punch with.

That turned out very pretty. I like it! The pieced binding really finishes off the whole quilt and makes it look fabulous.
