A new quilt on the way

A couple of weeks ago I started on a new project.

I am a member of a fabric club at Lappemakeriet. The box was now getting full.
So it was time to use some of them in a quilt.

Got started on cutting and sewing strips together.

Now blocks are starting to form.

A small pile is ready.

Will post more about it soon. This week is good for sewing, weather report says rain all week.

A birthday quilt

Today we went to a party celebrating a lovely girl turning 20.
I made her a quilt.

I used Tilda fabrics, in 7" squares. It is about 56" x 84".
It is quilted on my machine, in the ditch. There is no batting, just a green fleece on the back.
Witch makes the quilt soft and light.
Birthday girl made the impression she liked it.
Here is a close up.

I ALWAYS prewash fabrics. I also was quilts when they are finished, and before they get used.
So that is what I did with this quilt as well. I also put a colour catcher in with it.
Here is what it cought this time....

The quilt could have ended up alot more pink than attended!
I will keep prewashing all fabrics I buy.

Happy quilting
