Allietare is done! I finally finished sewing the binding on this quilt, and tried it out on my bed. It fits almost perfectly, and I think will make a great spring/fall quilt. I love the way the borders came out, with the brown tucked in there and then used for the binding. I decided not to do the scalloped border that Bonnie had on hers - partly due to "I don't wanna do that" inertia, and partly because I like a square edge on my bed quilts.
This is the first time I made a full-sized Bonnie Hunter mystery, and I'm really glad I did. I quilted it with the "Tickle Too" pantograph which is light and airy, with a few spirals thrown in. The quilt is busy enough that I thought it did not need any detailed quilting.
It looks amazing!

ReplyDeleteLove the colors you used, two of my favorites. And how pretty your borders are, love the effect with the two narrow borders and the one matching the binding! I must remember how you did that
