Homestead Quilt 8
Friday, September 25, 2020
Spiral Burst - complete
I finally finished this quilt a few weeks ago. It is such a huge quilt that I just did straight stitching in grey for the quilting. Then I added diagonal lines as well and ended up with a diamond pattern. For the binding I used up the last of the bargello strips by just unpicking the previous stitching and sewing them together in one long strip.
