A Monday Finish



It's wet and windy outside, so my pictures will have to be indoors today. Just finished putting the binding on this table runner for our upcoming ladies' tea. I have to admit that I'm pretty enamored of this black and white striped print. I want to bind everything with it! Somehow it seems to make a quilt's colors pop more than anything else I use.



The pinwheels were made from Hello Luscious charm squares, and the back is a hop dot print from the Nicey Jane line. I'm working on a few more similar table toppers, but those are square shaped instead of long. In between all of this, I'm continuing to work on my mini quilt for the Modern Mini contest. I'm having a lot of fun and probably obsessing way more than I should over the details. I can't wait to post pictures of it here.



Linking up to Sew Modern Monday, Manic Monday, and Fabric Tuesday!

  2. I recognise that backing fabric - I have a Nicey Jane jelly roll. I have used half of it to make this quilt: http://missbeaujangles.blogspot.com/2012/02/my-latest-quilt.html and am in the process of using the other half in a quilt-as-you-go quilt.
    I agree about the black and white, it really sets off the colours, will have to give that tip a try! Off to check out the rest of your blog x
