my latest

OK, can there ever be too much of a good thing?  Well, I don't think so.  Especially when it is fabric related.  So I have to share with you this latest bit of quilting from the Children at Play collection.



Something for the boys.  This quilt only took me 2 days to finish. It could have been done quicker, but you know how life gets in the way of our sewing!  I modified the pattern #001 from Zan Taylor Designs, just a bit.




I did it in the quilt-as-you-go style.  And sewed my binding on totally by machine. I actually missed sewing it by hand.  But it was finished sooner.  I think I set a new record for myself!  How do you like to put on your binding?

I just did one of these! it was so easy though my "straight-line" quilting was not very straight! practice makes perfect I guess. My machine binding is also questionable ;)

I love machine binding on a quilt that will get alot of LOVE! Quilts that take more time to make get hand binding.

Like everything else... Great machine binding takes practice and a walking foot.
