Another Rainbow Finish

Yesterday I finished this sweet commissioned baby quilt.

This is not my design– we were reproducing Mom’s childhood quilt for the next generation.

The front is a printed gingham from Riley Blake. The back is a light yellow Kona solid.

I did the regular allover cloud quilting.

Hope you’re sewing something fun!

Sunday Stash Report: 4/10/22

This week I used fabric to finish the Roses baby quilt, and better still, the whole top was from scraps.

New fabric arrived, mostly for this week’s new commission.

  • This week: + 4.75 yards, – 3.75 yards
  • This year: + 28.5 yards, – 27 yards
  • Net fabric destashed/added this year: 1.5 yards

I’ll be back in the black soon!
