Will you share some pictures with us of the quilts you have made using this technique???

Has anyone else used this technique and if so would you share pictures of your quilt with us??

Here are some pics of tablerunners & a quilt I did with the fun & done method. The scrap strip runners are the fun & done with the rulers. The blocks are 8 1/2". The runner & quilt are BOM I did with the fun & done technique, but they are 12 1/2" unfinished blocks...so I cut my batting the 12 1/2" & my backings are 14 1/2". I marked 1" all around the backing pieces, centered the top & batting (spray basted) & quilted away. Then put all together the way the fun & done is put together. The 1st runner is all the same fabric for the backing, the 2nd runner is 2 different fabrics (like this look for the front), the 3rd runner is the fabric same as the outer border (this one is the one I experiemented with adding an inner border), and the quilt has flannel for the backings & so carries over to the front. Very easy once you get the hang of it. So, fun & done can be used with rulers or without. It can be done the original way or with finished blocks. I also experimented with putting extra borders on the outsides & adding an inner border strip. Does this help you any, Jen?
