I completed hand stitching the binding on my project while driving to our family reunion on Saturday. We had a wonderful time, but I was exhausted after the 10-hour round trip, so I was glad that I was able to get if finished during the drive.
Luckily, I was able to take it outside for a photo today just before the rain came through just a couple of hours later.
I used dense quilting and chose a lighter textured grey backing, matching the binding to the border so the emphasize would stay on the quilt’s center.
It finished at about 61″ square.
This is the second Cindi McCracken pattern I’ve made that begins with a Dream Big panel. I made this one a few years ago.
I was surprised when I looked at the picture and noticed I used the same quilting design. It’s probably the only other time I’ve used it.
Because I’m trying to rotate between a bucket list quilt, a simple pattern, then a string or scrap one, the next up is a very simple patriotic quilt. If I don’t force myself to rotate, the quilts on my bucket list will never get made!
