So the last time I posted about this quilt was here, on November 30. This was the quilt I was making for my sister and her husband...for Christmas...last year. So, here it is May and I finally finished it. The quilt is roughly lap size, as I mentioned before it was entirely unplanned so it just turned out as big as it did. Looking back, I kind of wish I had added some more to the border to make it bigger. Here it is
If one were to look close it is certainly not perfect, however I have only been quilting for a year so I am pretty happy with it. I tried a new way to put on the binding, and my binding is kind of wide. Not sure what went on there. I think I will go back to the traditional way of binding with my next project. I also learned doing this that I really do need a walking foot, which is something I will invest in. Overall, however, I am happy with this!
