Another Fat Quarter one....!

I finished this little quilt from the Fat Quarter Quilting book by Lori Smith. This project is from the hand applique class that I am presently teaching at Fibre Junction.

It's called Vase of Flowers. Not sure what I will be calling it! Any suggestions?

I do like how it turned out!

It is one of my favourites thus far!

It has a flat piping and would you believe it's actually the first quilt that I actually sew/use a flat piping?! I cannot believe I waited so long! lol

The designer called for 3/4 of an inch folded and I thought it would be much too small to be noticed, so I cut mine 1 (one) inch!

Thanks for stopping by! Keep well!

    Beautiful piece, and love the quilting you did around it. I started a new small piece, but with the dark background I had to use wash away to do the lettering and won't know how it looks, till I wash it away.

    Hi Carole - Your quilt turned out lovely! I loved this design so much when I got her book, that I did this same pattern - but as a hooked rug! Very fun!

    Bluebird's Choice would be my name. I just love bluebirds and they caught my eye when I saw this one. Nice job.
