I Really Like the Back...
This afternoon I finished a quilt for a customer. She was given 12 antique applique blocks and with a week had a quilt top made.
The quilt has 3 borders and sashing and corner stones. There are twelve 16" blocks - 6 Sunbonnet Sue/ Overall Sam and 6 Tulip. I stitched around the appliques and meandered the backgrounds in the blocks. To stabilize the quilt, I stitched in the ditch around all of the blocks and borders. I continuous curved the corner stones. I did a wheat design in the sashing, which you can't see on the front. The smallest border is a one inch solid blue border I double piano keyed it, the next board is a print and I did a feather and hook, the outer most border is the same solid blue so I double piano keyed it as well.
