February Tablemats

 The necessary color at my house this month was lavender.  I did not have any in stash, so needed to pick up a few pieces.  I've been working with it all week,  as want to use it all up while it's all over my worktables.

I decided to play with wedges.  This project was an experiment.  I cut up a bunch of wedges, then decided what to do with them.   I  dressed it up with a bit of applique and free motion quilted a different design in each color wedge.  I did alot of quilting on it because I used a lot of batting trimmings for each and wanted them well secured.

I made a set of 6 placemats,  2 were made after I took this photo.  The backing is a silver blend of batik.

I'm linking up with Joy at the Joyful Quilter for her monthly table runner challenge. Be sure to visit there to see what other projects are being shared this month.

Wishing you a safe and creative week ahead.   Thanks so much for stopping by.

Quilt 4 Kids - aqua, purple & yellow

 It was time I finished a UFO.  This one is a quilt 4 kids quilt that was cut as a kit back in 2019, or maybe 2018.  I've lost track.  Anyway,  I quilted it up last year  and left it for  binding.  Now the binding is on, done by machine top and bottom.  I've grown accustomed to the quicker way all by machine, tho I do still sew the bed size quilt bindings down by hand. 

44 x 54

and here is the back,  a soft pretty fleece print; there is also a nice cotton frankenbatt in the middle layer
