    Default Whirligig Quilt.

    This is done but for the binding. Binding being my least favourite thing to do, I get a few ready and do them all at the same time.

    I did the quilting using a method where you copy a panto onto the backing and then quilt from the back.

    Pattern is Whirligig.

    I used to love to do hand binding, but I'm trying to finish everything on my UFO list as quickly as possible, so I'm binding by machine. My industrial has an actual "stitch in the ditch" foot - weird looking thing, but it does a wonderful job of sewing from the top. I baste the binding on with Elmer's School Glue to make sure I'll catch the binding on the back.

    I did the quilting using a method where you copy a panto onto the backing and then quilt from the back.
    That's a great idea! I had to quilt my last quilt from the back because I couldn't see where I was quilting on the front,

    Your quilt is lovely - so fresh and cheerful looking! Great job!
