I'm happy with how this piece turned out. I'll photograph it again once it's hung up. Fun to do a free form type quilt. No real plan in mind for it other than I wanted a white background.
The only mistake, I consider, was I didn't have much scrap fabric left so my binding was cut to around 3/4 inch. Instead of doing a single binding, I elected to sew a double fold which ended up having the binding around 1/4" or less all around! Boy, that was tough to sew the corners!! But it's OK...it's not for show...only for us!!
Bob and I headed to the show AGAIN on Tuesday! I can't believe it! Two shows in two weeks!!! We saw Magnificent Seven and it was great! The movie was over 2 hours but honestly the time went by so fast!!! We then headed off to The Laundry for a wonderful lunch! Plus, we had the best waitress I think ever! Her name was Sarah and she was fantastic! So helpful to us as well as to other patrons. She helped 3, 80+ old ladies select the right lunch for them...such a patient young lady and a great representative for the restaurant!
Think I'll be going to a third movie this year with Bob??? Guess we'll see! Actually, I want to see the horror movie, Don't Breath! I know I won't talk Bob into that one! OK, I know I won't talk him into that one!
It's progressed to done- nice! The colors in this one are somehow quite soothing. You sure gave yourself a challenge with the narrow binding. That was a "make it work" moment for sure. We aren't movie people very much either- can't recall the last one we saw in the theater. I'm sure it was a western or horse story though. Oh, I remembered, it was Miracles from Heaven and we saw it while in Arizona, not that long ago. And I cried all the way through it, so I should remember that!
ReplyDeleteI love your new modern quilt. The colors remind me of sea glass. It should definitely bring a relaxing mood to the bath.
ReplyDeletePerfect Spa colors in your lovely mod quilt. I cannot imagine sewing that narrow of a binding. Movies are a great date and sometimes it is nice to do something you don't normally do. Falling into Autumn Bliss...
