I've been busy

On Saturday I had a pile of fat quarters sitting in the cupboard and after some sewing on the weekend and some machine quilting today, I now have a new quilt. I love this quilt, the fabric is Riley Blake which I really like. I decided to just stipple the quilt all over as it was pretty enough with all the floral blocks.

I even got clever and quilted my name into it. I thought it turned out Ok, what do you think? Now I just need to bind it.

I hope you found some sewing time today.

Love it! And good idea to quilt your name into it. It would be good to quilt the year too, but don't know how to write a number in cursive. It could still be done, though.

Darling quilt, I like Riley Blake too. With poodles, cats and all the dust I don't use lots of white. Wish I could because white looks so clean and refreshing.
