I've been slowly quilting my Liberty Trip quilt. I'm doing a kind of wobbly star motif, radiating out of the central diamond. It'll make sense if I ever finish and get to show off the layout! Luckily the Liberty florals are beautifully busy, which will hide my many mistakes. I love piecing quilts, but quilting is still very much a challenge for me.
Some of the quilting and the binding fabric. This quilt is 100% Liberty. Except for the batting, of course. |
I've decided to make some cushions with the scraps from this quilt. I've got a layout in mind, just gotta get on it. And buy more batting. And maybe zippers.
Lots of scraps! |
If I EVER FINISH THIS QUILT I can't wait to get back to my Southwest Dead Pixel quilt. Don't worry, I'm still working on the name.

Linking up to Freshly Pieced's WiP Wednesday. ALSO, today the New Quilt Blogger Blog Hop starts over at Plum and June (with a giveaway!) Go check it out!
Good luck finishing up your quilting, and great idea for using up leftovers for a fun new project. I really like the southwest quilt, and Daegan matches it very well! :)
ReplyDeleteI love all of the bright colors in your liberty quilt! I can't wait to see the finish.
ReplyDeleteA quilt made all from Liberty will be so beautiful. Don't worry too much about it all being perfect quilting either.
ReplyDeleteYour liberty quilt looks lovely, I just have a few 6" squares of liberty - have't figured out what to do with it yet but it is really pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love the blue native design. I just bought the fabric to do a traditional navajo rug pattern but as a quilt. I am very excited.
ReplyDeleteSo much fabric and quilting beauty in this post - looking forward to seeing your Liberty quilt :)
