Completed projects
Pumpkin Patch Table Topper - Done and just in the nick of time! {see full post here} I really enjoyed this make-decisions-as-you-stitch project.

Upcoming projects

Now to make the binding. Since I have alot of Terrain fat-quarters left, I decided to make a scrappy binding using Kati's clever idea for candy cane binding, except I'm using just prints. Since the quilt is so colorful, I'm hoping the scrappy binding is a nice finish.

Ooooh, I'm swooning over your scrappy binding (really, I'm not just making a pun!!)! I love scrappy binding, so fab! Your pumpkin table topper is a lot of fun too :)
ReplyDeleteLove your swooning! Can't wait to see all those upcoming projects :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the big swoon reveal! My shoulders hurt just thinking about 11 hours of quilting.
ReplyDelete11 hours! Yikes! It'll be totally worth it though. And the scrappy binding should be a nice touch. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, 11 hours of quilting, yikes!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the finished Swoon!
I really like that approach to the binding, I can't wait to see the whole quilt finished!
ReplyDeleteCandy cane binding? I cannot wait to see how great that is going to look. My goodness 11 hours is a big time investment but it looks from the photo that it was worth the effort - your lines look perfect. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, wow and wow! So impressive that you quilted it yourself, so much work, but it is awesome! I think your binding will look fabulous, but I always like scrappy bindings!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute pumpkin!! I'm excited to see your Swoon quilt all finished- good luck this week- Happy sewing!
ReplyDeleteThe pumpkins....love them.
ReplyDeleteThe Swoon, gorgeous. Your photo is just lovely. What a relief for you to be finished the quilting, you're right, it is not a piece of cake! I'm getting there. :) I love the idea of a scrappy binding. I think I would have done the same except that I ordered just enough Hometown for the blocks only.
Debbie. your swoon quilt looks wonderful. Full reveal soon?
