Quilt crossings

This quilt just returned home  

from a traveling exhibit

"Crossings"

I'm happy to now hang her up in MY house!

It is very minimalist and contains

LOTS of recycled even some "ancient" fabrics.

I say ancient because the OLD old muslins

I included are stained and probably

100 years old.

I LOVED adding that element to this quilt!

The old fabric gives this quilt a quality

that Joanns just couldn't.

The hand quilting adds so much TEXTURE!

Hand quilting.

Old fabric.

Piecing scraps together.

Just SOME of the reasons I LOVE to quilt!

Friday Finish

The baby shower is tomorrow.

The quilt is READY!

Oops.

Need to get that label on!!!

;)

Inspired

I made this quilt 2 years ago??

I didn't label.

Bad. bad.

I remember having fun with the sample fabric

quilting lines with my machine....

and then hand quilting lines and around the wedges.

 

Wool batting makes this quilt extra soft and light weight!

Very cuddly.

 

I was so pleased when Cat let me know she copied!

 

Not exactly.

But SO nice to know you've inspired someone!
