Corner Kick quilt is done

Welcome to my blog!
I started this project on the last day of 2019 - sewing strips and crosscutting them.  I blogged about it in this post.
The pattern is from Gray Barn Designs, and is an interesting take on jelly roll quilts:

It is now quilted and bound:


Tropical batik jelly rolls strips, accented in yellow.  I did not have enough of that yellow for binding, so bought a closely matching batik for binding.  Back is a purple swirling print.  I have quilted it in straight lines in the ditch on my trusty old Kenmore sewing machine - about all I can manage as I never got the hang of free motion quilting.

A close-up:


It is about 50 by 60 inches. so a lap sized quilt.  No home or use for it right now, but maybe something will come to me.

First top for 2020

I love vacations, I can get so much done in my sewing area.
I sewed jelly rolls strips and cross cut them on Dec. 31 (package of tropical colored strips purchased recently).  Then finished the sewing of corners and blocks together  for a top in the New Year.
The pattern I am using is Corner Kick, available here:  https://graybarndesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Corner-Kick-06-06-19.pdf.


The top currently is 50 by 60 inches without borders.  It may stay this size!  This took one package of 40 jelly roll strips and a fabric for the corner triangles, which come together to form a square.  I need some more yellow batik fabric for the binding.

May you and I do some great quilting in the new year of 2020!
