Found this orange fabric at S.R. Harris. I was in there for. ever. I like this small pattern. Maman told me that's pretty traditional, to have a small pattern repeating a lot on the back of a quilt. Totally knew that.
Batting. Warm and Natural is what I heard I should get. Looking at the measurements, I am actually making a TWIN-sized quilt. What? But it looks so good on our full bed! I get it, some people want theirs to fall further toward the floor. Mine will be a shorty.
White and soft. I munna sleep under you!
I got a stencil pattern at Full Line Stencil. The kind that comes with the powder chalk that you iron off.
Ok. Let's talk about this.
I draw like crap, and I didn't want to follow the pattern of the shapes in front of the quilt, so I went with a stencil because it was a concept I could wrap my head around. If there is a next quilt, I think I'll draw with a washable pencil, or something like that. The main negative about the chalk stencil is that I am tied to the iron and the ironing board. I want to quilt in bed or in front of the TV, but there is too much shlepping for that to happen often.
Just chalk.
Look! I'm quilting! A real quilt!
Ooooooh.
Playing with Macro.
Thread and chalk.
And now it's March... and I'm still not done. But getting there!!
