I made another one of my fat quarter lap blanket quilts. This one is jungle themed for a friend who loves jungle prints. I think it's gaudy but she'll love it. And that's all that matters.
While there's really not much piecing effort in it, these simple blankets are a good way to practice the basics. I used 6 fat quarters, flannel backing and quilt binding. I think I'll try to make my own binding for the next quilt. Don't know why, but it really intimidates me!

Congrats on your "simple" fat quarter quilt. What a great quick way to make a quilt-especially cute for larger prints too!
Do not be intimidated by binding. It is so simple to make and apply. I am sure there is a great tutorial out there that will walk you through it the first time!! |
:D :D :D
Its just a biggining of something bigger...how about adding some triangles all way round.....(ok..just kidding :mrgreen: ) |
LOL
I have to finish quilting my ragged edge quilt, then I plan on doing a disappearing nine patch. :) I have to work my way up to triangles. LOL |
Great beginning Rubia, when making binding look for directions that have full pictures of each step. It makes everything so much clearer. :)

Your doing good, binding is just folded fabric. it does not have to be bias. :D
|
What a great quilt! That is such a good idea.....hmmmmm I may have to try one of these myself!
|
