More of the Same
We've had some fun picking fabrics to make some gifts. I liked the 6 inch squares on the Charming Kaffe quilt enough that I did the same thing again.
We started with some pretty crazy mix of teal, orange and brown.
It cried out for hand quilting. I used a bit of pearl 3 and finished with pearl 5. It turned out to be easier using the thinner thread with the larger needle. The stitching is finished. Now it just needs the binding.

ReplyDeleteOooh, I really like it. I haven't had the heart to hand-quilt anything... ever :) Your stitching looks wonderful and I love the colors!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful hand quilting! I wanted to use some pearl cotton for my winterkist quilt, but couldn't find the right colour. Boo.
