What's new around here? Another 3" of wet snow from a thunderstorm last night. And...they are predicting another storm Tues. night.
The only thing new about the quilt below is that it is DONE! Since it is only about 18" square I just ditch quilted with the teal/green thread around everything.
Detail of binding. I chose a binding fabric with the same colors that was halfway between the dotted teal and the black/teal in value. That way it became part of the design rather than a plain black that simply said binding.
The one below is nothing special. It was made to show how to use 2 little paper pieced orphan blocks and it never got quilted. It has been on the shelf for at least 10 years so I finally decided to quilt it and use it as the placemat it is supposed to be.
