Remember a few posts back that I went to Corrie's Quilts for Queensland Quilting Bee - well I have finally completed the last 3 of the 6 quilts I brought home to bind and sew and snip....it's such a good feeling. I forgot to photograph the first 3 but here are the last ready to drop into RetroMummy's for delivery!!
This is the third of the three that I brought home that needed sewing together and clipping, this is such a bright and fun kids quilt, and such a snuggly quilt too!!! It's the first time I have done a raggy style quilt with the wadding to the edges. Normally I cut my wadding 1/2 inch smaller than the sandwhich layers, so you can see the wadding, but it kind of looks fluffier if that makes sense.
These two quilts I took and had a family friend quilt them by hand, as I felt that machine quilting just wouldn't do them justice. Evelyn has done a wonderful job. I got to bind them, and you all know that's my favourite part of quiting!!!
This more traditional style one was one of my favourites, I am still amazed at how so many stitchers blindly created this quilt.....amazing!!! It all just goes together like it was made with by one person.
Great job Sonia! They are beautiful quilts and I am sure they will be much appreciated and loved b y their eventual recipients. xx
