My rows are joined and I have a flimsy!!!
I thought of adding a border...but I'm not going to.
I've decided to keep my little flower garden scrappy and fun.

This top measures 43"x62"...perfect size for my Hands2Help/Happy Chemo donation quilt. |
I'm going to sketch the quilting design during a very long in-service day I have ahead of me at work today. (shhhh....don't tell!) I am however, looking forward to breakfast and lunch with colleagues. We never get enough time to just be and enjoy eachothers company.
I'm playing with rick-rak,yo-yo's, prairie points and scraps to add to the flowers after I quilt.
I also chose this cozy flannel for the back:
Just realized as I'm creating this post, I haven't thought about the binding! Uh oh! Any suggestions?? I sure am having fun with this Quilt Along...off to see what everyone else is up to. Thanks for stopping by!
With smiles,
Val:)
This is super cute! Could you do one of those fancy bindings, where you use blue(s) to match the blue and do the bottom part in green(s)? I think that would be super awesome!
ReplyDeleteOh how pretty!! (And no I wont tell because I used to use our "off-site" meetings for similar thoughts). :-)
ReplyDeleteHow fun!! I have a thing for stripe bindings with a playful quilt.
ReplyDeleteI was starting to think the same think...black and white stripes.
DeleteWow, you've been working hard!! Loads of great fabrics!
ReplyDeleteHi!!!! Beautiful!!!! I love your layout and can't wait to see what else you are doing with it!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is very pretty and love the flower garden idea you have.
ReplyDeleteTFS,

Black and white stripey binding would look great (IMHO !)
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing!!!
DeleteThis is so cute. I'm kind of liking all of the above for the binding.....scrappy!
ReplyDeleteLove your sunny garden. Can't wait to see it embellished.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Such a lovely layout!! looking forward to see the finished quilt!!
ReplyDeleteLooks fantastic Val. I just started a weekend link Party if you'd like to link this quilt.
ReplyDeleteit is really cute Val. Can't wait to see your quilting.
ReplyDeleteReally like your fun version and now you've got me very curious about the extras...
ReplyDeleteGreat job Val. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the extra's. How about the same blue from the front for the binding? Since it does not have a border the binding would blend in and not distract from the front. Just my 2 cents worth.
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty! Love the bright star and the pretty flowers. I am still sewing mine into rows!
ReplyDeleteSuch a creative quilt!
ReplyDeleteFantabulous!! Love everything about it!! I did hexagons too! Never even thought of stars - very creative! Can't wait for the big reveal of your quilting design!
