I ran across this video from
Sew Very Easy last month, and I had one of those days where I had nothing planned so I jumped right in and made this little quilt. It's 36x45.
Such a simple block, but when put together, it makes a fun pattern. She also shows in the video many different settings you can do. My 5" squares were all from scraps that I am trying to clean up from the 80's-90's mauve/blue coloration.
Did you notice I said I made it last month, and here it is all quilted already!! Aren't you proud of me! I usually do a lot of piecing and then a lot of quilting so this is a rare thing for me to have an all finished project so quickly! The freehand allover quilting consists of a feather swirl and sometimes a hook feather thrown in.

I like the unifying pink strips in the quilt. Looks like a great block to try out. Great fast finish!
ReplyDeleteThat is cute! Good for you, getting it done so fast, too. That's an interesting block, and I can see where you could have lots of different designs, depending on how you turned it.
ReplyDeleteSweet quilt and surely satisfying to have a finish so quickly. Nice work!
