I truly enjoyed every single step in creating this quilt! It is actually a little sad to see it come to an end! However, that is ok, because once it is quilted, it will cover our spare bed and will keep our loved ones who come to visit, snuggly warm.
I have been hording six yards of Lori Holt's Sew Cherry backing fabric for just this. Isn't it so cute?! It makes me smile! And since the quilt measures 97" x 97", I will end up sewing a band through the center to make it fit. Still debating on what that will be. wink.
It's gorgeous! Great way to do this quilt, love that solid line.
ReplyDeleteGreat quilt! so much work must have gone into it. Love your new fabric too! what will you make with it?

Queen size? You are brave! I made a throw size, but someday would like to make another. Maybe the next one will be bigger.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! You always use fabric prints that make me smile. I may need to revisit this pattern, I made some blocks a few years back, but they were given away ~

Hi Trish!! Happy Dancin' with ya :) It's so wonderful and the Sew Cherry for the backing makes me smile big time!!! Are you hand quilting, or sending it out to be quilted??? Can't wait to see the finish. Mine is sitting in stack with the backing and binding fabric ready to go. This may just be the push I need!!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteDid you start the upper left hand corner of each block with white? I love the flow of the white blocks!
ReplyDeleteI love this!!!! Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteIt is just gorgeous!! I love the backing fabric you chose. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteTrish, it's huge!! I love the rows of white squares...can't wait to see it quilted!
ReplyDeleteI love it! The white squares make it so neat looking. And the backing is perfect.
ReplyDeleteOh, that will be the perfect backing! Your quilt is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLoved it! Trip around the world is such a happy quilt, I still smile every time I see mine. I like how you are putting yours together in a straight line.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I got my order from the shop and I love my new pincushion. It's nice and weighty so it stays put instead of sliding around, love it!
LOVE your Trip!!! It's so happy! Makes me want to pull mine out and get working on it...again!
