For anyone following along on this quilt's progress (you know who you 2 are, lol), you already know I started cutting this quilt out here and updated my progress here and now she's finished and I just ADORE her! =D This is the first quilt I've stippled with colored thread, a Gutermann teal/green color.
Here's an overlap of the front and back.

The binding was made using one piece from every print that was included in this quilt.

Also, I have been doing a few other things the past month...
Sewing trash cans, free pattern from Oh Frannson.
Denyse Schimdt's Posies in Raisin decor weight, McCall pattern.
Buttercup Bag, free pattern from Made by Rae.
Finger-puppet felt bunnies, free pattern from The Purl Bee.Now to just finish the Good Folks quilt I previously started and 2 pillows I've cut out and then I'll be getting deep into hexagon quilting, which I hope to share soon! =)
you have been busy Holly, and it all looks so wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteHolly, just wanted to answer your question about the iron and ironing board. I bought them both at Pottery Barn Kids a little over a year ago. They still carry them both but they have changed them in style/design a bit. Your garden party quilt is gorgeous!!
