Yesterday after skating on roads of ice in my Suburban to take Jr. High carpool to school. A trip that usually only takes 10 minutes or less, took more than 30. I decided staying home was my best bet.
I had finished quilting my bright and black Free Four All quilt the day before. I quilted spirals in the large squares to mimic the spiral of the black chain. Then straight stitched through the smaller squares.
I found a fun stripe for the binding. It was a little short but fortunately I found a piece of it in a scrap bin that made up the difference.
So happy to have this cheerful quilt finished. Going to link up with Sarah and give a WHOOP WHOOP! Then hope the weather improves. I really need to get to the grocery store. Oh, I almost forgot, the free pattern for this can be found on my tute page, just in case you’re wanting to make one too.
Beautiful and excellent choice for the binding. Thanks for sharing the tutorial. I'm off there now.
Love this quilt and how you chose to set the blocks. It is a beauty.
I've been staying home too. The snow hasn't gotten here yet, but the temperatures have been frigid!
The setting on this quilt is great. I am working on my blocks off and on since last Thanksgiving. I cannot wait to see what it will look like. I am having such fun sewing all my different scraps together. Thank you again for this wonderful pattern.
What a cheery quilt…just the thing to lift the winter blues :o)
I do love your quilt. Simple blocks yet amazingly striking!
Great quilt. Love the stripe binding fabric.
Oh I do love this quilt. The binding fabric was perfect. Hugs
I love this quilt! Mine is nowhere near this stage. I only work on it on and off.
Great colors!! Your quilt is just beautiful.
I love your bright and cheerful quilt! Lovely quilting too.
Wow! As if I needed another leader and ender project but that one is so perfect for my bright scraps! And your binding is just right.
How lovely!

This is so cool! I love the kiss of black squares with the brights, and the spiral effect. Nice. 🙂

That is a very happy quilt! Your quilting is the perfect final touch.
Love the black spiral. What a great scrap quilt. I am totally "pinning" it!
