QAYG Crazy9Patch: the back |
Then I tried a very small zig-zag with a 1.5 width & a 2.0 length. This stitching went on the very edge of the fold -- mostly. lol. It's acceptable on the back. Each corner will have a tack stitch or two to maintain the miter. This is not a show quilt, just something my family lovingly calls a "drag rag." It will probably take many trips to the washing machine during its lifetime, so the zigzag ought to help the binding stay where I put it. [Picture below, right.]

Well, that's what I've been up to the last few days. Finishing this quilt that measures 60 X 76. Not too big, and not too small... "just right," as Goldilocks would say. What are you up to today/this weekend??
Until next time. . . I plan to go cut up some fabric. How about you?
Quilty Hugs,
MENU FUN:
My Plant-Based nutrition plan has been modified to include additional protein such as eggwhites, occasional small servings of certain fish and chicken breast. Today's salad has: Romaine lettuce, diced tomatoe, red & yellow bell peppers, then a sprinkling of Nutrional Yeast, 2 T of salsa and 1/2C of EggBeaters cooked like an omlet, rolled up and served on top. It was yummy. Desert was a small fresh nectarine.

Love those quilt as you go ideas. Did a pretty batik table runner last week. Pretty plate of vegetables!!!
Since you like one side and not so much the other how about
Beauty and the Beast? =D
I think it looks cosy and that your family will snuggle under this quilt makes it a keeper.
Finished the binding on my little spool wallhanging, and finished up a thread catcher + worked on my September DQS.
Another OPAM finish! Yeah! Good for you. You're way ahead of me!
Poor Beasty, such a name! Still, if that is the name he has earned, it would be a shame to change it now. Love your backing fabrics, such a great way to use up odd bits.
That's a great quilt Cyn, and the back is as great as the front. I really need to try machine sewing down my bindings. Your salad looks tasty, too.
Aren´t you proud of your work now that the quilt is done? Well, I am proud of you!

Your quilt looks beautiful Cyn and your binding looks wonderful! Congrats on getting the "upgrade" in your diet! Looks fantastic and it has been awhile since you had those additions! It must be working!
Gratz on the finish! Way to go you :-) Lovely quilt!
