I have posted about this little quilt here but now I have a bit more progress to share with you.
Last time it looked like this:
Now it looks like this:
I have not completely finished my quilting as yet but I have finished the Amish Wave/Baptist Fan quilting in the border and so have been able to bind this one. I picked out a different plaid fabric, in similar colours and made my binding on the bias - love checks on the bias, don't you?
I will finish off the quilting in the strips as and when I feel the urge.
I can tell you that I love big stitch quilting in cotton perle and that I am a big fan of fan quilting! So thank you Carolyn Forster for another fun workshop! And I'm looking forward to seeing your new book on Utility Stitching!
