Amy is sponsoring once again the Blogger’s Quilt Festival. You can read all about it here. Please visit some of the quilts that strike your fancy and leave comments for the quilters!
This little quilt I finished a few weeks ago. I honestly just love it. It was a Row by Row from 2016 from Alewives Fabrics in Nobleboro, ME. The trees are all Dr. Seuss like and it is so much fun. I often use this size on an island near my dining room, but this one I got a little carried away with the borders. It finished at 15″ x 40″.
This little squiggle of quilting in the inner binding makes me happy. For quilting threads, I used three different threads:
- YLI Machine quilting in Green to Tan
- Superior Mono Poly to go around the trees
- Mettler 50 weight, #678
This is the second time I have used this binding technique and I really love the pop of color you get. Also, it’s all done on machine, so it couldn’t be easier.
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the festival!
Lovely entry and contribution to the festival, Kathleen! Your flange binding is a fabulous way to finish it!
Thanks, Yvonne.
I agree with Yvonne, that flange binding is great!
Thanks, Jan.
I love everything about this piece. 🙂
Thanks, Yanicka.
Oh Kathleen, it's just adorable! I will check out that link! Dr. Seuss-like indeed!
Thanks, Sandra. Which link were you going to check????
It turned out so cute! I love the idea of taking one row and making it into its own quilt!
Thanks, Nancy!
Fun, fun, FUN!!! P.S. That's one of my favorite binding techniques, too.
Thank you! I can see why you love that binding technique – it is a great eye catcher and fast – what's not like.
What a fun row! those trees are so whimsical! I could make some of those.
I love that little quilt – funny how happy a small one can make me.
Great way to use the row design. Love the colours.
Thank you, Karen.
What fun! I love the scrappy hills.
I do think they are adorable!
