I was really happy with the binding that I chose. The black and white really brought the whole thing together and looked great with the backing.
I hesitated about giving this one away because of all the mistakes. People who receive something handmade don't see it the same way as the one who crafted it. We see all the errors and they just see the beauty and the love behind it. The recipient of this quilt said she would love and cherish it which is the reaction I was hoping for - but unsure about. Thank our LORD Jesus Christ that our Father is not as fussy with me as I am with my quilts. Because of Jesus, He sees me as beautiful despite all my despicable traits. What a blessing!! ! That's the way quilting is for me every time - a journey into humbleness.
I just did easy quilting up and down shadowing the triangles. If it weren't for the five rows that I had to pick out it would have been fantastic - but isn't that the way it always goes for me - like I was saying...
All in all I really enjoyed learning about how to properly sew triangles and if you head on over to
www.stitchedincolor.com you can learn more about my teacher and her other courses. I think she is offering another one in the Spring. I love this lady for her lovely way with words and her love for crafty colored inspirations that will motivate you to be unique.
