I’m so happy to have this lovely quilt finished (50 x 58). I already blogged about it here so I won’t go into too much detail. I quilted this on my domestic machine (my beloved Juki). It may be one of the last quilts I quilt on that thing – as I’m a month or so away from getting my long arm. I really really can’t wait! To do this simple quilting I used a walking foot, especially because my batting was so puffy.

Here you can see how simple it was. Yes I used some of my deep Denyse Schmidt stash for the back. I am trying hard to use fabric I really love and pass what I don’t on to my guild.

As always I tucked one of my woven tags into the binding. I ordered 1,200 ten years ago and am still working through them (I used the World Wide Label on Etsy). I know this is probably not the level of label historians would prefer, as it doesn’t give much info, but I do thing it’s better than nothing. It’s not intrusive but hopefully someone would figure out I made it via the internet in the future… time will tell!
I’m not quite sure what I’m going to do with this one. Rarely do the quilts I made have a home in mind when I’m making them. I don’t do well with an assignments (probably why I have already made three quilts since my daughter’s said they each wanted one inspired by this artist). I pieced this quilt about four years ago. I’ve kept up the practice of keeping triangle scraps separate and have two bags ready to go for the next time I want to make one of these, I really do love it. What do you do with your triangle scraps?
