This week’s finish is a twin-size donation quilt.  I made the forty-eight 16-patch blocks as leaders and enders over the last year or so.

I love all the squares I put together, but they do look more interesting up close.  I thought the citrus greens would keep it bright, but when the blocks were finished, they were pretty dull.  That’s why I bought the ombre fabric to use for borders and sashing.

Of course, I had hoped to miter the border corners and let the green flow around the quilt without interruption, but I didn’t have enough fabric.  I used scraps to make the cornerstones instead.

The backing is a watercolor forest print.  I used the trimmings for the binding.

And here it is against the last snow of the winter ().

Hope you’re keeping warm and having some great finishes!
