I have so many coloured scraps left over from my RJR Fabrics ‘what shade are you blog hop’ that I decided to make and giveaway a wall quilt to say thank you to all of my lovely IG friends.
I asked on IG what thread they thought I should use to quilt the grey fabric area, grey or purple.
I am going to count up there responses and then quilt in the thread that is requested the most.
I counted up the responses and they were pretty much even, so I decided to be the tie breaker and go for the grey, hoping I wouldn’t disappoint the purple thread lovers too much.
I decided on a quilting design that included circle shapes with flowers and leaves coming off them, I am calling it my blossoming moon pattern.
I used clear thread to stitch in the ditch and then matched each coloured section to a matching thread.
I am really happy with the way it turned out!
Close up off the middle section.
I just have to bind and I will be ready to giveaway!!
