As I mentioned in my last post, this quilt is made up entirely of stash fabric that needed to be used up.
I used a variegated thread that I have had sitting around forever. I honestly don't even remember why I ever bought it, it is not my style at all. But it was perfect for this quilt. I quilted with simple lines 1/4 inch from each seam.
The backing is my favorite part. It is a Lizzy House print that I found on clearance for $1.48 a yard!! I bought it knowing that it would be the backing to a purple comfort quilt one day. I just love it!!
I used a matching purple in my bobbin instead of the variegated thread because I didn't want to distract from those adorable castles.
But, I did use the variegated thread on the binding - so cute!
It is amazing what a difference lighting makes. The pictures above where taken outside under the shade of a tree. Below is the same quilt in the house.
The inside pictures are closer to the actual colors.
Thanks for stopping by!
