This is a little quilt I made for my Prairie Women's Sewing Circle......love this Sawtooth Star! Went together very well and I just love the Indigo and Cheddar print! Now, tho, I want to make Another One using the same Indigo again but with a Cheddar background! Unfortunately, my mind works much faster than my hands!!! I machine-quilted this one in my usual manner of Stitching in the Ditch around the blocks which is enough to hold it so I can bind it for display. Decided it needed more quilting just because I like the feel of more quilting! With the light shirting background, I did not want to draw pencil lines, so I used my Hera marker, which is a plastic tool for marking a crease. Following the crease lines was easy but it still took me about 3 hours to quilt the whole quilt..........I am not a very fast machine-quilter!!

Very nice little quilt. Love those sawtooth stars! Looking forward to seeing the other version that is in planning.
ReplyDeleteI really need to spend the next few projects on smaller little quilts, these large ones are taking up so much time!
Wonderful job and I'd love to see it in Cheddar and blue, too! Hope you continue to post your PWSC projects and so glad you enjoyed making the quilt!

ReplyDeleteYou may think you are a slow machine quilter, but it is a matter of relativity. Cute quilt and I also like the fabric you've used.
