I finally got this rag quilt finished yesterday. Last night I washed and dried it along with one of my dogs' tennis balls and the edges frayed nicely. It's nice and soft. I made this in order to use up the large amount of white, cream and beige fabrics I had. I do not care for white at all, so I am really not sure how I ended up with so much of it in my stash.
It's not a good photo taking day for me, I'm having lighting issues, but here is a closer shot of the quilting. I machine quilted stars on all of the plain blocks and x's on all of the four-square blocks before joining them.
This was a fun project, and I would like to do another one in more fun colors.
Neutrals are very calming. I like your colour combinations. They are very practical as well!
ReplyDeleteNot showing dog hair gets MAJOR points !
ReplyDeleteI like that you quilted stars, too.....all I ever do with rags is X's in the squares .
Good finish........congrats !
Allison, thanks, and you are right about neutrals, they are practical.
ReplyDeleteDolly, anything that doesn't show dog hair is a big bonus here:) The year I started this I guess I was going through a star phase, I had 3 different style star quilts going!
