This poor quilt has been waiting for it's binding since June! Finally it's finished and the day was right for some photos ... with lots of 'assistance' from Oliver, the resident quilt inspector!
I received the fabrics and pattern as a kit from Sarah's Fig Tree Club.
Strawberry Fields is still one of my favourite Fig Tree ranges and this quilt was quick and easy to piece.
I love the large florals in the borders especially the one with the white background.
I used the strawberry fabric, again on a white background, for the backing.
Leanne quilted this one too. Yesterday I cut some fabric ready to start piecing Speck, this month's project for AYOS. Hoping to be back soon to show how it's looking.
Oh, I love it...glad I had joined the Figtree group now too!! What is AYOS though??
ReplyDeleteStunning, Christine!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful finish. The spotty red binding finishes it off perfectly.
ReplyDeleteI love Strawberry Fields too - suits the quilt so well. And I love your binding too.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog, it is so inspiring. Glad you are posting more often too.
ReplyDeleteI love the strawberry fields fabrics. Oliver looks like he love the quilt too.

ReplyDeleteCats are such appreciative creatures - they know something good when they see - or rather lie - on it! Lovely lovely quilt Christine - the fabrics are gorgeous and the design, though simple really, is so effective. Inspires me to go and make similar .... Lovely blog, thank you for sharing!
