Here is my first “monthly
installment” of mini quilts.
Since I am doing my ModaBlockheads sew-a-long in the “potholder method”, I had this little bag of
leftover bindings. There are 48 weekly blocks, so I cut one 1 ¼” square off the
end of each strip and added the off white and voila! Easy peasy.
I hand quilted the border
following the serpentine, but it doesn’t show in the photo.
Next Wednesday (January 31)
will be the final Moda Blockheads block. It has been fun to follow along. There
are countless interpretations. I mostly follow by the designers Blogs, but
there are far more examples on the Facebook page.
On to my February mini!
What a sweet little quilt. I love the fabric in the border. It must feel good to have the first finish done and have it tun out so nice.
ReplyDelete#1 is awesome. What a great way to get started with your goal. And then to have another quilt almost finished as well. I love the little serpentine border print. I think I still have a small piece of that. :@)
