Hi Everyone
Finished this quilt this week. This quilt used 5 fat quarters and some background fabric and sashing fabric. This quilt is going to be a gift for a friend who is going through a lot of family stuff and I thought this is a way I could send her a warm hug without giving her a hug (we joke about sending each other ghost hugs because I dont like hugs).
It was a very fun sew and I tried to used some fancy stitching for the binding and besides how much thread it used I like the additional personal touch to the quilt. I will be doing it again.
Its pretty good size for a lap quilt- I kinda dont want to give it away.
On to the next quilt. Happy crafting!

That is a lovely quilt & such a wonderful gift!
I like how it’s got the good quilt crinkle with only stitch-in-the-ditch quilting.
