Quilt is Done!



Kate's quilt is done. Finally! Actually the bind is on but not stitched over to the back. I think I'll let Kate do that part :) It looks wonderful in her room. I put it on her bed after she left for school. She will be surprised. Hopefully in the next few weeks, we'll make some throw pillows, maybe some pillow shams and a couple pillow cases. I really like this quilt.

Kate's Quilt



Working on Kate's quilt. When I put it on, I had no idea what I was going to do. I thought about something really easy. Then it would be done in a day or two and we could get it on her bed this weekend. But the quilt was crying out for some unique quilting. It's very contemporary, so no feathers on this quilt. Since the fabric line is called oxygen it seemed most fitting to put circles in each block. After doing those I knew I needed a different looking line. So the double line going diagonally through the white on each square. So far I really like the look of it. I haven't decided what to put in the white rectangles between the blocks. The only drawback at this point is all the time it will take to do this one. Well, my 13 year old is worth a little extra time on her quilt!
