Simply Woven, finished!
 
2 Attachment(s)
I finally got this quilted and bound. I used an ivy border design diagonally across the quilt, with gray monofilament thread. Because I used un-prewashed batik strips and backing, I brought the finished quilt to the laundromat to use their big machine. I threw in 4 Color Catchers and some Syntrapol with good results.[ATTACH=CONFIG]534761[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]534762[/ATTACH]Thanks for looking and for all your previous advice!

I am in awe! I started that but it wasn't working. I think I got in to much of a hurry. I think I will start again.

Love that you used some bright batiks. It came out very lovely.

Very pretty, even the back.

Somewhere over the rainbow is what I thought of when I saw these beautiful colors. I too will make a quilt with unwashed batiks so I like your idea of using the laundromat washer for the first wash of the new fabrics! I will remember that idea. Thank you!

Love this quilt, what a great stash buster!

Some one on this board suggested the laundromat idea in a previous post. I'm so glad it worked. Expensive wash though!

I love that pattern and your have done a wonderful job keeping it right on target. It looks like it is a real challenge to avoid mistakes. I also like the bright batiks you chose to use. Enjoy!

Absolutely love this quilt you made! Wonderful job with colors, too. I actually printed this pattern awhile back and hope to make one someday. Yours has inspired me! Beautiful!
