It was a $3.00 add on at some point in order to get free shipping and then I pulled coordinating fabrics from my stash and just stitched up HSTs.
I was able to get 2 little quilts out of it but I'm still binding the 2nd one. I used up another bargain fabric from my stash for the backing and bound it with this dark pink:
Jackie quilted this cute design across it with pink thread:
Her quilting always brings a ho-hum top to life:
At 45" x 45", it's the perfect size for a sweet baby quilt:
Don't let my green yard fool you. We're struggling through a pretty tough drought right now, but DH watered the yard non-stop while I was away at my mom's this summer and I took up the sprinkler duty when I came home.
The yard's never looked this good and yes, weeds mingle with the grass, but I spend about 30 minutes each day pulling weeds and the jury's still out as to who's winning the weed war, but I've got a green yard and a finished quilt so I'm claiming victory
What a fun, bright quilt Karin! Love the colors. Have a fantastic day.
ReplyDeleteVery nice little quilt. It's always fun to make something that doesn't cost a lot. Happy stitching and I hope you get some rain.
ReplyDeleteLove the baby quilt! Even tho we live in Iowa our lawn is brown! The weeds take over!! Happy quilting!

ReplyDeleteI love the interest that tiny print adds to the quilt. It turned out lovely. :)
