My Pyramid quilt is all quilted and bound!
I just love the scrappiness and how the solids frame all the different prints.
The back turned out beautiful. I struggled a bit to pick out a binding. I tried yellow and gray, but ended up with this Kei dot in blue. It matches perfectly.
It's quilted with straight lines about 1/2" from each seam. The quilting went surprisingly quick.
Saturday I picked up this basket at the Container Store. It's beautiful and quite heavy - great for housing some quilts!
In other sewing this week - I made up a couple of Jeni's Drawstring bags for the girls who are on their way as I type!

Very pretty finish, Cindy. Your little drawstring bags are also cute as a bee. Looks like you've been lucky to get in a lot of sewing lately. We missed you at the BTOG mtg. Hope you have not deserted us.
ReplyDeleteLOVE this one! Love the coordinating solids in rows like you did! Very nice!
ReplyDeleteI love that basket. It's a good thing I didn't go with you to Containers. I would have ended up with a bunch of things!! Enjoy your girls!

Have just been catching up with blog reading and it was lovely to see the story of this quilt unfold - from inspiration to completion! Job beautifully done - and adding the red was just so right!
