I've finished the top of my chicken quilt. The photo really doesn't do it justice. The colours are so much richer! I can't decide whether to use the fabric I had bought as backing or piece the backing with the leftovers! I'll think about it overnight.
This quilt is for the back of the couch. It's been such a long time since I've made a big quilt instead of mini's! Now to send it off to be quilted.
Wow Christine the quilt top looks amazing I love the reds, the chickens will love hanging out on your sofa, LOL
ReplyDeleteit is awesome Christine and boy it didnt take you long,i would use the fabric that you bought to back it and use the left overs to make some matching cushions,lol,you need them.xx
ReplyDeleteIts so cute, a great finish for you.

ReplyDeletelove the border blocks, they look amazing.
Like the outer border, sets it off nicely. Great job.
ReplyDeleteIt will look fabulous on the back of the couch.
ReplyDeleteVery nice, and so quick too :) I like Shez's idea for cushions, though how you would make them er chew proof is beyond me :)
