Today is time to make the final choice for my mother's quilt which is choosing the binding fabric. I have auditioned a few, but they were either too bright or too boring. I want the binding to blend into the solids and still have some texture; it sounds easy, but is not so.
I need to move on with the quilt, so it may not be the perfect choice, but I have picked a dark blue batik with light flowers. I am a very slow binding stitcher, so I have my work cut out for me for the next few evenings.
Have a wonderful Monday
Oh I like what I see here....Will be great to see it all finished. Time is running short. xox
ReplyDeleteI love how bold you are with your thread color! Good luck on your binding.
ReplyDeleteLove your quilting! I am slow sewing the binding on, too. Small stitches for baby quilts especially, and then no bigger than maybe 3/8th for quilts that will be used by adults... don't want any holes. It takes a while if you are doing it right.
