Well here it is!! I'm so happy with it and thrilled that it's mine! I've been carrying it around the house like a baby with a woobie. It's the perfect weight for Arizona and I see many more quilts in my future. Thank you all so much for the great advice! It's always nice when you can avoid the whole "learning by my own mistakes" thing. I didn't want white sashing to begin with but I'm so glad it was the only decent choice available because I really think it's perfect with all these colors and the red binding.
Here's the back. It's kind of weird but, oh well. I had to add more fabric to it since I made it too small at first. The only thing that keeps it pretty is Heather's amazing fabric.
The time in the dryer covered a multitude of sins so you can hardly see the wonky stuff. I love all the bumps.
Thanks so much for all the encouragement and advice! I'm taking it all!
What do you think of the new blog layout? I went to try a small change and ended up erasing all of my little details (colors, fonts, banner!) so I stayed up late working it and re-working it until I was happy with it (still re-working a few things). But it's a good start for this week I guess!
Have a wonderful week and don't forget to sew something!
