Wow! Lovely quilt!

Deborahkr81 02-18-2016 05:24 PM

This is beautiful! I love it. What a great way to use those little pieces. I'm new to the quilting game so I'm gathering info on several techniques. I'll add this to my "what to do with scraps" list. Thanks! Love the quilting design too!!

This is the first time I have tried machine stitching a faux-piped binding. I was surprised at how square the corners turned out. Here is the YouTube video I used: http://thequiltshow.com/daily-blog/1...5bfc3a371c1723

Great quilt. Thanks for sharing the video too.

Gorgeous quilt! Love the quilting.

For those of you who still have tons of scrappy squares multiplying in the dark, check out the Quilted Twins website. They have a ton of free patterns for scrappy quilting. They are really nice!

The quilt is beautiful and the quilting is awesome! I am in the process of doing my first flange border myself. I hope my looks as good as yours!

WMUTeach 01-15-2024 04:35 PM

JENNR8R, I had forgotten all about this beauty. Thank you for sharing the the link and tutorial again with us this year. It is amazing all of the many options that are available for making use of 2.5's. I always giggle behind my hands when folks ask about what they can make with 2.5s. "Well, just let me tell you....." My list of "To Dos" and dream quilts is growing longer by the day!

carolaug 01-18-2024 05:05 PM

That quilt is beautiful!!

I know what you mean with the endless 2.5 in squares. I have been making a bunch of stuff with my old 2.5 squares from left over fabrics from quilts I have made in the past. I am so sick of seeing the same squares, so finally after making a few panels today, I put them in a bag and it's going to the donate bag. My goal is to use some of my fabrics that I bought at quilt shows many years ago. I think that will get my quilting mojo back.

Ukinusa 01-25-2024 04:22 PM

Love it, your quilting looks great.

asmmauer 02-01-2024 07:49 AM
