This is a quilt I started a long time ago. Years and years.
It started when someone gave me a stack of 3-inch squares of some really
UGLY fabrics. Just the kind of leftovers-nobody-wants-it fabric that
appeals to me.
I kept adding to it as I came across reject scraps.
Once I added some pieced borders of blue Kaffe fabrics, the quilt reminded me of a bunch of colorful kids in a swimming pool. Hence the quilt's name, Jump in the Pool.
The back is pieced red and yellow prints that I had on hand. Once Terry quilted it for me on her long arm, I bound it with another saturated blue from Kaffe.
Finally. Finished.
Make it a Wonderful Day!
Really lovely! The borders set the scrappy middle off wonderfully!
ReplyDeleteNow that's what I call a real quilt! It turned out to be beautiful. I'm going to have to rethink my scraps.
