A weekend stitching produced this charmer
and it was loads of fun!
This blue top ended up a small queen size
at 73" x 80".
I used 2" strips for the columns with
a 5" pieced sashing between.
The film strip top and bottom borders are
one of my favorite treatments.
The finishing on this quilt is planned to be a wide
binding. This will re-enforce the pieced
sashing strip a bit and define the lighter squares so they
are not lost in the binding.
This is not in my repertoire so
it will be a new experience for me.
This top will go to the waiting room with
the current batch of flimsies.
Detailed notes will have to provide
me with direction when it is time quilt
and finish this lovely top.
The white squares are 2" cut and centered
in the column of mixed of blues and grays.
A bit of comparison shows that the
pattern was almost followed!
The side borders were made up of 2" squares
instead of strips.
All the strips were 2" as there
were more blue 2" strips cut in the sewing room stash.
This was such a fun project that I may make
another! Stay tuned for an update!
Stay safe and sew on!
