    I really like this quilt. I think I am going to make one. And I do like you colour choice. I think I would bind it in the same colour as the border so as to not distract from the quilt.

    Hi Katrina. Since your blocks have straight lines but lots of movement, I like the idea of gentle swirls to quilt it with. I would add a medium blue binding and perhaps the largest motif floral for the backing. Whatever you decide it will be wonderful, as all your quilts are. Thanks for another fun video.

    Great way to make a "no brainer" quilt! Brown is the perfect binding as will pull out the fillet color. Quilting. It's a quick quilt, keep it so by stitching in the ditch.
    Notes from my sweat shop. For production sewing/pressing, conduct first pass of sewing, stagger the edges on your ironing board and set them with one press. Second pass of sewing (for other side), do same. Then open up and press seam individually,

    Love, love, love this idea. What a rest between specific cutting for most quilts. I have a ton of layer cakes, can’t wait to try! Thanks 😊 I would tie it, as it looks like an old time quilt made from clothing.

  • @LadyEileen13
    @LadyEileen13 Рік тому +1

    What an amazing quilt Katrina. Personally, I would add a blue border and a swirly but not too fussy quilting design and I agree with an earlier comment that it does remind you of an old fashioned quilt made out of scraps of clothing. I would probably hand quilt it.

    My sister makes these types of quilts, but she adds a 1 1/2” black sashing to have a mosaic look. Both are lovely❤! Nice and easy and yes, freeing. Well done!! I’d love to see it bound in the blue and brown honeycomb fabric!! 😍

    Thank you! This is just the "pattern" I was looking for to use with a layer cake I have. I love the randomness of it! I would think maybe the caramel color would be pretty as the quilting thread. Also, I entertained the thought of piecing the three together and then cutting again the other way. Hhhhmmmm. Might try that. Thank you again. Love your tutorials! Happy Quilting!

    Very pretty quilt. Minus the flower material like maybe some plaid would be a perfect quilt for a man. I'd like to make one for myself. Thanks for a beautiful pattern. I made one similar to this but different candy material and in the center I drew some candies and then wrote around the top and bottom saying...life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what your going to get. Has a chocolate brown border and back. It has a pink border bcuz a lot of the fabrics had pink in them. I am really proud at how it turned out.😊

    I would use a blu for binding and some sort of curvy motif E2E for the quilting. I’m like you I did a slash quilt and just did not care for it and put the blocks away. I just recently pulled them out of my WIP pile and laid it out and sewed it up. Absolutely love it now!

    Quilting: Something with curves (such as an all-over pan to), and consistent in design to offset the “odd” shapes. I think that would enhance the quilt. Kathleen in Canada

    I cannot wait to make one.

  • @barbarah5742
    @barbarah5742 Рік тому +1

    I would bind to match the border. It gives my eye a place to rest and contains the mix. Quilting pattern should be soft with medium curves, but not a tight floral. However there's a lot of options depending on the actual patterns in the fabric mix. I once did something similar with bright juvenile Halloween blocks on a smaller scale. It was like containing a riot on my wall.
