Wanted to do a quilt for my Aunt’s 90th Birthday this summer. So I found this quilt Kona Cotton Cozy Throw kit and ordered. It came so quick from Craftsy, it was my first purchase from them.
Once I got the kit, I did my cutting, which went very quick. Then I headed into the piecing the strips and cutting them into the blocks. It was so easy, fun and quick.
Once I put them blocks together, then it was time to put the sashing on.
I took me a few days to put together the top, then it was quite a bit of time before I got in gear to find some backing. Went over the weekend and bought backing at a small local shop Pressing Matters.
I got a Moda Flow Apple Egeria. It is very cute, bright and soft.
Time to make a sandwich.
Got my sandwich done, now I need to give Alice a call to get this quilt on her schedule.
Wow I’ve really planned ahead. Don’t need this one until August, but I know that Alice has a big job coming up so want to get on her schedule.
Alice has a longarm? And you pin baste your quilts? That's unusual, if it's actually a longarm. Love the top! Do you know about Moda Bake Shop for free patterns?
Yes she has a longarm. As a beginner I read the steps on what to do. So I went all the way to just before quilting. She told me I didn't need to do that
