This quilt top was finished a few weeks ago, but I finally got it quilted and bound.
Not too bad for a bunch of leftovers.
I think the back is perfect. This piece of large polka dots sat around for a long time. And, lucky me, there is more of it. You’ll see it again on baby quilts in the future–colorful and happy!
You can tell I recently finished a large project and am on break from teaching. A backlog of delayed or partially finished projects is breaking loose and racing towards finishes. Look for more coming soon.
ps–No tutorial but a few construction notes. The colored strips started 3″ wide and 33-ish inches long. The sashing was 2″ wide. The pieces on the end were the same. So, the quilt finishes at approximately 34″ x 36″.
Another one I should use up some of my scraps on! Yes, I can tell you are on vacation. LOL
I’ve never made an actual Chinese Coins quilt like this one, and now I’m wondering why! I love scrap quilts, and it’s such an easy and great pattern. I’m glad you reminded me of it! Thanks, and Merry Christmas 🎄
Perfect baby quilt and the backing sure is a winner. Enjoy your vacation and sewing time.
Ah its lovely, nice and colourful, perfect for a baby
Really colorful. Colors that catch a babies eyes and interests them. Nice. Like the backing.
this is so very pretty and your choice of backing fabric is perfect. Well done.
Am i correct in assuming that all the ” coins ” are NOT the same size? So me seem to be wider than others? what a great, beautiful way to use scraps and not to have to worry about matching seams. My kind of piecing!!!! Thanks for sharing.
