My SAHRR flimsy is finished! I incorporated a lot of orphan blocks into the project and most of them were used, at least the ones with blue in them.
Here is more of a close up of the bottom half.
And the top half.
It was a nice day so I took a picture outside on the glider.
This quilt was made with the intention of being donated and knotted. It will be sent somewhere there is a crisis and people have a need for comforters.
As of now, the flimsy measures 63" by 90" which is longer than I had planned but you know how it goes when you're making a quilt without a real pattern.

Lovely finish Gretchen! I love the binding and quilting … I think the size will be perfect once washed with shrinkage! Yay!

ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful! Congratulations on getting it done.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! The recipient will be so blessed by the results of your efforts.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is fabulous !! I find I need to alter patterns because they design them too square. Tho I love the look of square designs, I don't think they are very useful for cuddling.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to incorporate all of the orphan blocks! This turned out really pretty!
