Have you ever gone through your stash and ditched old fabrics you didn’t like anymore? I have. But thankfully, a few pieces missed the trash bag. And I’m so glad! I finished this quilt for a lady that bought the top at an Amish auction quite a few years ago.
She wanted me to not only quilt it, but also add the binding and a sleeve to the back, but she didn’t have any extra fabric. Can you believe I found in my stash two of the exact fabrics used in the top and backing?
The colors are off here. It was way too bright out to take good photos. I found a piece identical to this backing to use for the sleeve.
The binding was a near perfect match as well. Close enough!
Have a great day!
Perfect! It’s fun to find “just what we need” in our stash!
Perfect! Absolutely wonderful!
That quilt was meant to be! Beautiful job, Katy
Lovely! (But I don’t think I want to hear reasons for hanging on to every darn piece of fabric in my stash . . . I’m drowning as it is! )
Your quilting is great! You take orphan blocks and make beautiful quilts. Do you quilt for others?
That was wonderful! The quilt looks great. Hugs,
That’s fun and to non fabric people probably pretty amazing. My guess is Hoffman fabric and about 30 years old?
