If you remember last year I wanted to finish up 10 quilts by the end of the year and I certainly didn't get them done. But now I am finally finishing some of them!
I started this quilt about 6 years ago to give to a friend of mine for her birthday. Well, it's finally complete and I gave it to her this weekend. A little late, but she loved it none the less.
I started with a honey bun roll of fabric (2.5 in strips) and added a few strips from my own stash. It didn't finish up to be very big so I divided up the rows and added some sashing strips to make it a bit larger.
It has an all-over wave pattern quilted into it and I just loved doing that. It took a little longer to quilt it but I will definitely use that pattern again. The quilting has a nice flow and look to it.
In this pic you can see the wave pattern and all of the beautiful colors in it. I love the newsprint type fabric that I used in the border. It adds a nice scrappy look to the quilt. I wish that I could find this roll of fabrics again - I just love these colors!
Here is a photo of my friend holding her quilt. She was happy to receive it. :)
