I love this quilt.
I've already said a lot about it here, but I have to say it again--this quilt was so fun to make and I really mean that. I enjoyed every minute of the piecing process.
I decided on a zigzag layout because I love zigzags, and it was different from the traditional diamond layouts. But I don't think you can go wrong on this one. I want to make another one now and make diamonds.
I ended up going with the plummy architextures print for the binding
and I quilted in a dogwood pattern, which was my first time, and I love it. It's definitely not perfect, but you really cannot tell. I'll be visiting that quilting pattern again soon.
I used a Kaffe paperweight on the back, my very favorite kaffe fassett fabric. It's such a forgiving print to use as a backing...
love love LOVE it! I love that yours is unique, good for you, perfect
ReplyDeleteYay!! Way to go :D
ReplyDeleteI love it because it is a zig zag and different! And I now think I might quilt mine with the dogwood blossom design too. I was trying to decide, but I think I'm sold so thank you. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat to see a different layout to the scrappy trip along

ReplyDeleteOoh, I love this quilt soooo much! I really am inspired to pull out my scraps and do a similar one.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty, thanks for sharing :) Recently, I very efficiently (not like me...) sorted all my 'scraps' into vague colour piles, so this would be a great quilt for me to do next. Congrats! Maya.
ReplyDeleteI love your version! I'm a little slow in finishing mine. :/ Just linked this post on my blog cause I liked yours so much.
