Still Obsessed
I do believe that red/white quilts will forevermore be my obsession.
This week, two of my finished red/white quilt projects were masterfully machine quilted by my master machine quilter and friend Jo.
This quilt pattern is called Bear Paw
A vintage quilt pattern that I had wanted to make for several years.
These blocks were made from red/white scrap fabrics from my red/white orphan block box.
Machine quilted with soft white thread in a continuous cat motif.
The quilting is so stinking cute!
I love it!
This red/white quilt is comprised of string pieced blocks.
The red fabrics are all scraps from previous red/white quilt projects and the white fabrics are all various shades of white to off white to tone on tone white fabrics from my stash. The machine quilting continues the diamond shape theme and it is STUNNING! I had originally planned to hand quilt this quilt but I'm so very happy I decided to have this quilt machine quilted.
I am so happy with both of these quilts.
Now to get them trimmed and bound.
For the last few years I have been making an intentional effort to use fabrics from my fabric stash before buying more fabric. I won't lie I have fallen of the "no buy fabric" wagon a few times but seeing these two quilt projects make me feel good about working through my fabric stash.
