Yet another scrap quilt from my bottomless pit of a scrap bucket. It doesn't look like your typical log cabin style quilt, but that's the method I used to construct the blocks. I squared them up with my 9.5 inch square ruler, added sashing with "points" and a scrappy border. It measures out at 43x43, which is fine because I already have a gazillion throw size quilts, and it's nice to make one for the fun of it and not worry about the size. Before the binding was finished, I was already pulling fabrics for the next quilt. It seems my sewing mojo has returned. I even dusted off the old featherweight.
In between quilts, I'm working on my
Farmhouse shawl. It's a very relaxing knit, nothing too challenging for a newbie knitter like me. I have this month to finish it up as it doesn't cool down properly here until October and I'm looking forward to wearing it.
That log cabin quilt looks great, I like the points in the border. Beautiful. Greetings
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt Lynne! I was admiring it for ages on IG! I love the effect you got around the edges where the border zigzags in and out! Did you use a pattern for the border? It would look great in many settings!
ReplyDeleteThe farmhouse shawl is going to be fantastic when finished.The quilt is stunning. I find quilting so hard so when i see such work I admire it a lot x
ReplyDeleteI like the quilt a lot it is soo pretty (like all the quilts you make), and your knitting looks very nice not like the work of a beginner more like the work of an expert.

I envy you your knitting for the finished product, but don't think it's my deal, the work.:) Very fun quilt finish! Such an interesting pattern. I too enjoy not worrying about how big a quilt will end up. They seem to tell us when they are done don't they? lol
ReplyDeleteYou inspire me just about every single time--that quilt is great. And your featherweight has me green with envy! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt! And that shawl! I am still looking for my sewing mojo :-(
