Red Again.
Posted on | January 27, 2015 | 14 Comments
Can’t help it. Red just keeps featuring!
This is a little wall hanging using the left over pieces of Holiday Frost from a quilt I made a couple of years ago.
I did some straight lines through the centre panel simply to secure the layers.
Then I did some echo quilting on the red triangles as well as meandering and pebble quilting on the white triangles.
I tried some petals in the big corners and added more pebbles. I need to work on the petals.
Then some swirls, loops and raindrops in the different borders.
Even a little meandering in the strips across the top and bottom of the panel.
I used a grey and white spot for the backing and another red in the binding.
Of course I had to have a photo with shadows!
All I now have left of this fabric is a panel with a variety of blocks. I hope to play with that sometime soon.
This is the original quilt I made with the fabric.
As always, it is lovely to have another UFO off the list.
Just how long can I stay on this path?
Cheers, Karen
Great quilting and congrats on working on UFOs.
WOW….another finish for the year. I am going to send my UFO’s over to you!!! You did a wonderful job with the quilting on this one!
As you know, red is my favorite! And this is another really pretty quilt from you. I like it every bit as much as the “mother” quilt to it. Your quilting is truly beautiful.
