I bought a half yard of each floral-large, medium and small scale. And a FQ of each of the dots in the line. I also have a stripe that will be the binding-yes, definitely cutting the stripe on the bias!
It took the longest time to find something that I could use those prints and dots on, and I LOVE the way this turned out! This is another one by Modern Quilt Relish, called Brioche & Baguette. I changed the layout and size a little to use all of my fabric. I just have some little scraps to put into the back-love it when it works like that!
So there's the 3rd UFO finished this summer. They're hanging in my closet-tops with the pieced backs and prepared binding. I'm on a quilting strike until December when I get my long arm. I want plenty of practice tops!

No border, just the bias cut striped binding to finish it off

Don't you love brights and black?

I really like that! You did a great job choosing fabrics that play nicely together and picking a pattern to showcase them. Great job!

I love brights and black. Did you use solid black? Kona?

Black is so great to pop the colors. That is a beautiful quilt.

Yes, the solid is black kona. The rest of the fabric is "Ellie's Emporium by sue Penn for Fine Lines" But I've had it for a year waiting for the right pattern, so probably not still available.

I just LOVE your quilt!!! I like that it doesnt' have a border. I have done that a few times and like how it turns out. Just make sure to stay stitch around the quilt before you put it on the frame. It helps so much. :)
