The holiday brought family (lots), food (plenty), fun (can there be too much?) and finishes!
The Window Box Quilt is a true finish now, not just a top.
I love the large polka dot binding. Very happy.
I had exactly a yard of the fabric that was planned for the back, but the quilt is 37″ square. So I added a 2-1/2″ strip and a few blocks to make it large enough and that made me happy, too.
Before the holiday I pushed really hard on the memory quilt project and took five with me to stitch down binding while traveling. And they are all done. That makes 12 of 17 FINISHED! (Pictures coming soon.)
A thankful holiday and six quilt finishes. Can it be any better than that?!
It really came out very nice. Love the design, the colors; the quilting- and even the back. A nice finish! It pulled together beautifully.
And I can’t believe that you have 12 of the quilts done; that is amazing. You certainly are a very busy women. Can’t wait to see the pictures of them also! You are an inspiration- so thank you!
Looks great! Cant wait to see the others! Lovely colors too,
Sounds like a wonderful use of travel time! Congratulations on being almost finished with all the memory quilts. Love what you did with the quilt backing.
I love your quilt and am awestruck with your tenacity to accomplish sooo much. Have you ever been referred to as an overachiever😉?
That one is really great I love the back.
Love the way you added on to the back! It’s cute! The quilt is a charmer!
I love the colors…looks like a bag of spilled Skittles!!!!! and I am glad you got so many of the memory quilts’ bindings sewed down..my husband used to say I knitted my way across America…so you did binding in your travels..beautiful job well done….
