At last I made the difficult decision on the binding color. With no really dominant single color, I couldn't figure out what to do about the binding. I pulled all the colors in the quilt and looked at the stack of fabric and kept putting it off until tomorrow. And then Duh! it dawned on me, make a binding from one strip of each. Since it is 81x50"ish, I could cut seven strips and that would make use of everything, mostly. The owner wants to hang it on the wall in her new home, so it had to have a really long rod pocket. That got added and sewn in place and so now it is finished. I await the new address to send it and the other quilt she has purchased, Radiant Orb.New house, new art, wow!
Great quilts! They'll really add some vibrancy. Keep up the good work. Lois

ReplyDeleteWhat a lucky new owner to be able to afford your gorgeous artwork. Her home will be dazzling! Orb has always been one of my very favorites!
ReplyDeleteI am absolutely intrigued with your Radiant Orb quilt! Ever since I first saw it, I keep studying it trying to figure it out. I kind of have an idea, but there are parts that have me baffled.
ReplyDeleteYou do such amazing quilts! Thanks for sharing.
