Done like dinner


So it's finished and I'm not really over the moon about it. I think it's the off-white sashing that's irritating me. I am kind of proud of my progress on mitred corners though!

Edited to add: I went with the free motion again because of the backing I chose. I was scared that it would be too visible if my lines weren't straight if I stitched in the ditch. I feel one coming in the near future though!

Seriously - you've come so far, so very quickly. I think there's something to be said for already knowing how to sew before beginning to quilt . . impressive!!

I bought a walking foot today for my machine and was very tempted by the foot they had for sale that makes you do perfect 1/4" seam allowances. . .maybe next month . . .

I really love it. And I'm very impressed with your corners also.

Thank you! Glad you like it - hopefully the recipients will, too!!

D - you'll do great things with that walking foot. And what's this 1/4" foot all about? Never heard of it!

I think it's lovely! What fabric did you use for the binding?
