Well I thought you might like to see the a finished quilt for a change instead of just a quilt tops. I would have love to have taken a photo of it out side in the sunshine but once again we are experiencing the great wet . I am very happy with the over all look of this quilt but will never do a  fringed binding again . I live with the belief that  I  will try anything once might not like it but you have at least got to try it .
This is part of the fringe binding and I have to say it dose finish the quilt of nicely. It is something you should defiantly do with a good movie or two or three or four, as not a fast thing to complete and by the time I was finished lets say I am still finding threads one week later .

These are some of the embroideries that you don't get to see to well in the big photo, as well as the design I chose for the plain fabric blocks. It was nice to finish something of mine for a change and I can now count one less to the pile of quilts waiting to be quilted .
Will have a surprise for you all next week but more on that later, hope all of you enjoy your weekend and happy sewing

  1. Love this, Becca! The fringe is the perfect finishing touch. The colors are some of my favorites too. Good job!

  2. Love the quilt Bec, and I really like the feathers in the 'plain' blocks too, looks great. Those applique'd and stitched blocks are just gawjus - is this your design??

  3. It's really lovely - those curly hearts and pretty embroideries. Nice work on the quilting of your whole cloth practice. Ann :-)

  4. I have done all the stitching on this one but haven't put it together. Wasn't sure on the fringed binding. Yours looks great
