This is my January A Lovely Year of Finishes Goal, and one of the Q1 FAL goals....
This is what it looked like at the first of January - A few Strip sets and a potential Backing fabric....
And here is is today: ( like it's shoes? - its always hard to know what shoe goes with pink - tee hee)
This one was just a random pile of strips and so - I sewed them into a coin type set and put pink around them. I also wanted to try that feather cable quilting that is so cool.
Note to oneself..... when you want to try something new - try it on a small quilt.... not a 60 x 75 one....
And I did use the Hot Pink with gold stars as the backing - and binding. I like it

ReplyDeleteI don't even like pink, and I think this quilt looks great! I love your quilting, and your comment about experimenting on smaller things made me laugh.
ReplyDeleteI think it looks great. I really like the coin quilt and I plan to make one for my nephew who is graduating high school this spring.
ReplyDeleteYour quilting is gorgeous! I am totally stealing it! And I will likely do it on a large quilt, too. This turned out very well.
