I got the binding finished on my Day One Graduation Quilt.
I like the way I turned out! I used solid gray for the binding and for the back.
Edit: I forgot to add the picture of the back! Here it is:
This quilt pattern (Birds of a Feather) looks great on the solid-colored fabric. Our guild pledged 25 graduation hilts for 2026, and they are due in March. I think we have 11 so far. I am going to ask at our meeting if all interested parties can get a few more done so we can meet our goal. I quilted one for another guild member.
She cut those print squares from a plaid fabric. Those wonky squares kind of make me crazy, but I need to get over it! We all have different ideas I guess.
I got two customer quilts finished for Janice.
Both are pretty. I’m hoping she’ll donate one or both of them to our Day One drive, but that’s just me hoping!
I will deliver the quilts today at our guild meeting. Our scheduled workshop is “Manx” quilting. I had to google it—it’s not something I’ve done before—but I have some squares and strips precut so I can try it. One of my favorite things about quilt guild is the workshops. I learn a lot of new things from them.
Your graduation quilt is so pretty, love the gray background. Hope your guild can meet the goal. I did a Manx block following Amy Smart's instructions and liked the way it looked, but I never did another one. I'll be interested to see what you think about it.
ReplyDeleteI always like the really colorful ones best - a bit of finishes there.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty quilting on the graduation quilt. Looks like you've been getting a lot of quilting done.
