'Free as a bird' quilt, my version
 
3 Attachment(s)
This quilt was fun to make, it is for my friend who is a bird watcher and is moving into new house.
My FMQ is far from perfect but I am glad that I can do it myself, I am having fun with it.
Used mostly my scraps, even the backing was a left over from another quilt, binding came from 'binding bag', also left over from other projects.
thanks for looking

great little quilt, love the two friend birds on the back. I love backs with a little treat on them.
I've been trying to do that on some of mine lately.

Adorable quilt! I do admire your neat narrow binding. I haven't quite achieved such a tiny and neat binding. The old fingers "ain't what they used to be."

Annaquilts 05-18-2015 06:20 PM

Beautiful both the piecing and quilting.
