The reveal of the Good Hope Quilt Mystery was two weeks ago, worked on putting it all together. The top is done.
Cleaned all the fluff and stray threads off the back of the quilt.
These cotton fabrics are more loosely woven and frayed quite a bit. Something which is happening a lot lately with the newer fabrics?
Part two said in the instructions 16 strips instead of 8 strips sets. So sixteen strip sets was sewn and waiting for the reveal. ( The quilt used 8 strip sets in total).
Those extra strip sets have been used and it has been used making a small quilt top for a baby.
Baked bread yesterday, later a bit of stitching happened and a walk in nature.
New buds on the trees along the trail.
The mystery quilt is beautiful, you use lovely fabrics! That is a lot of loose threads though. Have a blessed Easter!
ReplyDeletewow on the nest of threads I have a little bit on the back of the Dresden's that I need to clean up. Love that stream you show last
ReplyDeleteI usually see the fraying of fabric when the shop cut the fabric off grain. It is really annoying.
ReplyDeleteWhat size is the Good Hope quilt?
It is 84”x84” square. The blocks are big too!
