In limbo


All our sewing projects have been in limbo for about the last....month(?) You do the math---our last blog post was on May 2 and today is June 2. Yup. One month. It feels good to be back on our bloggy blog.


This Churn Dash quilt was inspired by Southwestern colors and is very colorful! It took a little thinking outside of the box to make it happen and we are pleased with the results. If you want the free tutorial for the blocks you can head on over to Cluck Cluck Sew.


Just in case you were wondering (we knew you were!) the machine quilting is a stipple pattern. It is our go-to as far as machine quilting is concerned. But we've probably already mentioned that :)


The binding. Ooohhh...the binding.  Stripes do us in everytime.


The binding happens to be a vintage sheet that we found at a thrift store. Vintage sheets are cheap and make for good bindings, and backings, and squares, and... you get the picture :)

One more close-up:


If you would like to purchase this quilt,  it is listed in the shop. We are on a mission to get the shop full of quilts...let the sewing rampage begin!


Well, that about wraps it up. There are some other goodies to show you later this week so keep your eyes peeled :)
