Abundance
I finished the quilting and binding of this little Abundance quilt today. I just love that name. It really makes me feel blessed. This was a design from Humble Quilts.
I also quilted a donated top from the local quilt guild. Someone had several bolts of fleece that they no longer wanted, so we were given a top and a fleece backing to put together. No batting needed. After sewing them together, I trimmed the fleece to 3/4", folded it over, and zig zagged it on the top. This seemed like it all was pretty easy, but somehow came out a bit wavy on the edge. Still very usable. It is a comfort quilt to be given to the pediatrics ward at a local hospital.

I agree with you about the Abundance name. I usually like to come up with my own quilt name, but on this one I'm not so sure.
ReplyDeleteYours is very pretty--I like the addition of the green color.
Love your Abundance block! The colorful donated top is perfect for a pediatric ward. How nice of you to finish it... warms the heart, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog today via Judi's Design Wall Monday and am enjoying it very much! It seems we have take part in some of the same projects! I made an Abundance quilt too and am also part of the small quilt talk group on Yahoo. I am originally from Wisconsin as well. I love your work!
