I wasn't going to blog today but then I started folded laundry and realized that a little bit of watery fall light was coming through the window, perfectly accenting the quilting on my single girl.
So here she is all quilted, bound, and done. Already covered in dirt in some spots thanks to the cats. And done. Did I mention done? So glad it's done.
After much back and forth I went with the blue flea market fancy stripe. I realized that what had been holding me back from deciding was that while I love this quilt I just wasn't in love with it anymore. So consequently I didn't care all that much what it was bound with. So why the blue stripe? That's what I had the most of. Decision by default I guess.
have an awesome weekend,

Love the colors and the quilting! Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove it - and you know, the feather really works with this. I like that addition, though I know you werent sure about it after you added it.
ReplyDeleteI think it looks fantastic. You should stop by my site and put it on my Friday finish post.

ReplyDeleteI like the organic quilting lines with the single feather a lot. Even as a default, this binding works very well too. I hope you enjoy your new quilt! It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYay! Finished! Love that you used the yellow blue red stripe (my fave of the three options). It is spectacular and I am sure you'll fall back in love if you give it some time.
