"Not-so-Quick-Strippie" finished!
All done!
I was pretty tired of more straight line quilting by the time I finished this one!
Oh, but I’ve done many with more than this one - I think just adding this much to the charity quilting I’ve been doing- my hands were actually starting to feel tired. It was good that I took a little break and actually pieced something last week (hoping to show you in a couple of days!)
I made the top a couple of months ago now and talked about it on this blog post and wanted to finish it to completion before it sat for too long!
So I did.
There really isn’t too much to this quilt - it’s very simple. I talked about the idea behind it at the original blog post where I showed lots of pictures of the making of the top.
I did pick through my 2” strips that were already cut and found the brightest I could. Obviously I cut the bordering strips and the wider strips from fabric that came from my shelves.
I was going for as bright of a color scheme as I could without being fluorescent! I also was aiming for the more ‘pure’ colors - reds, yellows, blues, greens and not really strange or ‘off colors’.
I went outside to get some pictures earlier in the day but the sun was shining a bit too brightly to get good pictures - but the colors were brilliant! Later in the day I took the rest of them with cloud cover.
And as usual, I like to get a picture of the quilt roll.
Another close up shot of the straight line quilting in one of the sections. I just eyeballed it - that’s why it isn’t perfect
I updated the pattern with new pictures and hope someone can use it!
I also updated the picture/pattern on the 2” strips project page. You knew I had that, right? RIGHT? LOL
Have a great day wherever you are reading this!
