Hi Quilting Friends! This is just a quick little post to share my second finished quilt for the week, the yellow gingham porch quilt.
As with all the others made this year, I used the scraps from the front a little extra solid white to make the backing.
The solid white binding was attached by machine. The plan was to make 12 of these gingham quilts this year. As usual I can't stick to a plan. This is quilt #5 and it means I'm behind schedule. I should have 7 finished. I could play catch up but I think the homeless quilts are more important than me decorating my front porch. I also had planned to finish UFO's this year. So the gingham quilts will take a back seat to the homeless quilts. I think I'll just keep making the charity quilts until I run out of franken batting then work on my UFO's so I can produce more batting scraps for charity quilts.
Until next time...
I hope you find time to stitch up something sweet!
I love the yellow gingham quilt, she's so bright and cheery! I would actually use her in the winter because she's so bright and cheery. I don't know about the south of Indy area but up here in northern Indiana it's overcast, gray and bloomy most of the winter. A bright yellow gingham quilt would certainly cheer things up! Happy stitching!
ReplyDeleteOh my! Yellow is my favorite color and this gingham quilt is just beautiful 💛 I've been finishing a lot of UFOs lately...I think I need to start something new 😉
ReplyDeleteThis quilt is so sweet and sunny and I love gingham, too. Other charity quilts are wonderful but this is my favorite. Also, my favorite to keep!!
