For those of you who have visited before (thank you by the way:), I recently finished this quilt for my 90 year old grandmother who lives in a nursing home. She spends all of her time in a wheelchair these days so I wanted to make something that was small, and could be placed on her lap. She's a wee bit of feisty one (all 77 pounds) and red is her favourite colour. This pic is of my daughter who held it up for me once I finished piecing the top.
Love a striped binding, don't you? Just happened to come across this fabric recently at my LQS so I knew it would match perfectly!
I used my Accuquilt machine to cut all of the isoceles triangles so it came together pretty quickly. I used a plain red flannel for the backing so it would be nice and soft for my Grandma.
Finished size: 25x31
Quilted by me on my home machine
Little Miss G and I visited her recently on Mother's Day and gave this to her as our gift:)
Such bright cheery colours! I'm sure she loves it. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the color combination that you used, it is beautiful:)))
