I finally finished the Granny Squares quilt for my friend! I used the Blue Elephant Stitches tutorial.
My husband helped me get pictures of it 🙂 The backing was from the huge stash of fabric I got from my mom last year. I still have a ton of this fabric! I machine bound the quilt in white. I really like the idea of using the same color binding as the background.
My friend loves cupcakes so I used a cupcake print for it 🙂 I used variegated thread for the quilting. I quilted around the granny squares and then around the outside border.
She was married in July but I only finished it yesterday 🙁 Better late than never I suppose! Isn’t finishing quilts inspiring! I kind of want to make another one now. If only I had the time 🙁
I love your work!! I agree with your choice for binding. It really keeps your focus on the main stage–those beautiful pink blocks! Thanks for sharing and inspiring. Saw you at Made By Me party!
Thanks for stopping by!
