A finish!

Hello and welcome!!!

I have a binding finish to report.  I described in this post a quilt top made of feedsack fabric and new white fabric.  It was pretty large (80 by 80 inches) so I sent it to the local long armer.  I recently got it back, and she did a great job quilting a tight stipple all over the quilt.

All old feedsack and vintage fabric, even the border.  The pattern is from the Scraps Plus One book.  I really like how this turned out, and I am collecting/cutting 3 inch squares for another iteration.

The back is feedsack too.  I had 4 matching feedsacks and managed to find a 5th matching feedsack on ebay.  How lucky was that.

A great old fashioned feel!  And a finish to put on my blog.

Zig zag top complete

Good Day and welcome to my blog!
This week's post is just a continuation of last week's post on the new start: a zigzag pattern.
I had to find new fabric as I was running out of my cream colored background fabric.  I did find a replacement: Kona Cream.  It matches in color but has a different "hand" and thread count.  So when you are really staring at the top, up close, you can see a difference, but not from a distance.  Good enough for me!

The top is approximately 75 inches square.

And a close up of the blue and white:

Next question:  Quilt it myself or send it to a long armer?
