A backing was pieced from 12 fat quarters that I won 10 years ago in a shop hop draw. I don't enjoy sewing with solids so this is the perfect place to use them up.
So now this UFO has a backing, and a batting cut, and is ready for pin basting.
I have the thread colours picked out and the quilting will be quick and easy horizontal wavy lines so this can be finished by the end of February.
Congratulations on such a nice finish. Using your least favorite fabrics on the back is a clever idea.
ReplyDeleteA perfect way to use up those fat quarters. Sounds like you will have it quilted in no time. Happy quilting.
ReplyDeleteUsing up lots of unloved fabrics is perfect for quilt backs. Looking forward to a February finish.
ReplyDeleteThis project is looking great, top finished, backing pieced, next step pinning and quilting!
