I am pleased to have a comfort quilt finish to share today. My part is finished so I am counting it as a finish. I pieced and quilted, then passed it off for binding.
I enjoy making these Carolina Chain blocks as leader/ender and have made several charity quilts that way. You can find free directions from C&T Publishing for Bonnie Hunter's quilt pattern. She used 2” strips and I used 2 ½ ” so my blocks are a little larger.
Here is a close up of my quilting. The FM quilting is swirls on the blocks and a feather chain around in the setting triangles and border.
Then I starting working on a UFO. This is my test sample of the alternate block I plan to use. EQ names it “Summer Winds”. I have all the pieces cut for 12 blocks so I hope to do more piecing today.
I'm linking up with I'm linking up with Alycia's Finished (or Not) Friday Hope you will check out what others are doing.
Have a great week and enjoy some time for quilting.
