Western Ribbon Weave
3 Attachment(s)
Just finished this quilt last night, washed it this morning, and it's laid out to finish drying. The pattern is Ribbon Weave from Bethany Reynolds' book Stack-n-Whackipedia. I changed the borders and used more variety in the sashing fabrics. The first picture is the quilt top, then the back, then some of the leftovers of the fabric that I used. This quilt is very quick and easy to make. I saw this fabric used in a stack-n-whack (using a different pattern) at Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show last year, so I looked for it and found it online. I had planned to use a solid backing, but didn't have enough of any fabric that halfway matched, so I wound up making more blocks and used them on the back. This is the first time that I used Sharon Shaumber's glue method for binding, and I have to admit I didn't pay enough attention to the directions in her video when it came to the corners, so I messed it up somewhat, but I now know what I SHOULD have done and will try it again on another quilt.
