There is a finished quilt top on the design wall today! Isn't that always so exciting!?!
This is the Good Hope Quilters' Guild 2024 mystery called "When you shine". It was a fun mystery with a very different approach to block sewing, so I'm glad I tried it. And I did clear out a lot of fabric!
I fussed around about sashing, borders, size, etc, and really just went with the yardage that was available, which was enough for 1 border and 2 sashing strips. Finished size: 49.5" x 56.5"

Cute and FRESH!
ReplyDeleteso springy...yes that tula pink print is sooo versatile!
ReplyDeleteJust darling!
ReplyDeleteFairy Dust is the perfect sashing and border fabric for those pretty blocks, Kathy! Your mystery quilt top turned out great!
ReplyDeleteI like that you listen to your fabric, and make what you have work for you! It is a riot of color in very neat rows. Is that an oxymoron?
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is very pretty and the borders suit it perfectly. I must get mine finished this week, It has been fun joining in with the mystery but all those half square triangles were a real pain!
ReplyDeleteI love that top! So simple, but yet so unique. And yes, every once in awhile a light border or binding just works.
ReplyDeleteAnd look at those points on those blocks. Beautiful!
So pretty! The colors made me think of Easter Eggs, and the Tula borders were an excellent choice.
ReplyDeleteThe border/sashing fabric you used make the whole top look gorgeous. Will you be adding another border too?
ReplyDeleteThat border fabric was the perfect choice. Congrats on a bright and fun finish!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt looks fabulous, Kathy ! You chose the perfect border fabric- love the name of the fabric too. Enjoy your day and Happy quilting.
ReplyDeleteI love how colorful it is.
ReplyDeleteYea for a February finish. I love Tula fabric.
