Topic: Quilting
I got back to a little bit of quilting today!
I bought this as a kit back in February - a small wall hanging in the 'watercolor' style. All of the squares for the landscape background were pre-cut. I had to buy the fusible grid interfacing. The fabrics and patterns for all the picture pieces were included but I had to provide the fusible and cut them all with tiny sharp scissors.
After assembly I used my domestic sewing machine to free-motion a meander across everything but the dog.
I provided the border (2 1/2" jelly roll strips), backing (woodgrain), batting (warm & natural, hanging sleeve (paw prints), and binding (plain black) from my stash.
This is a little (OK, a LOT) formulaic for my style but when I saw it at the Sewing Expo I wanted to make it as a gift in memorial of our black lab who has been gone many years.
The title of the quilt - Water Dog - refers to Chuck's breed as well as the quilt style (watercolor quilt).
