In 2014 I started hand stitched (not epp) the flowers. Another year I basted the edges down and appliqued to the black squares. Sewed them all together another year and added borders. Then it sat. I rolled it onto boards last month. I finally pinned and did minimal machine quilting down the long column lines as a squiggly in black. The around either side of the blue border. I added the yellow binding to pull the yellow center color out and finish it off. I'll be hand stitching the binding during hockey games this week. It feels good to move a old quilt top into the almost completed column!
Linking up with the RSC.... sometimes it takes a while but those RSC quilts do get finished eventually!
Closing in on another UFO finish, Deb. Way to go!!
ReplyDeletelove how the quilt turned out!! the black certainly makes the colors pop
ReplyDeleteI like how the yellow binding does bring in the yellow from the center.
