All hand quilted; binding by
machine....
And...........
I decided that it needed my Grand-mere's old buttons
that I
inherited...
45 buttons in all
↴↴↴↴
This one has a lot of Lizzy's fabrics on it...
thanks so much Lizzy;)))
The back has cute little ducks on it from an
Old Layer Cake...
I like the mix of my husband's old shirts and pj's--
and the flowered fabrics....
I am happy with this outcome....;)))
All I have left to do now are the hanging straps
(from leftover binding strip)and the label....
and she will be ready
to hang for July 4th..;)))
*********************************
Now to make the binding for my SIL's Zig Zag--I will be working on that
this week......
Stay safe

Oh my, Julierose. I love it. Those buttons are just darling and the tea cup background fabric goes so well with the flannel pjs.
ReplyDeleteA clever idea with the buttons, a lovely finish Julierose!
ReplyDeleteA stellar finish, Julierose! Congratulations - it’s so soft and lovely!
ReplyDeletelovely finish - the buttons are so charming.
ReplyDeleteI do really love this quilt Julierose - it's so pretty, but I also like that it was made using previously-loved fabrics, which (at least to me) is the true definition of a quilt. And the buttons - oh, my magpie heart really LOVES those!!!! Not that I have a thing about buttons or anything of the sort!
