I took advantage of some sunny weather today to snap some pictures of my Liberated Wedding Ring Quilt that I finished up last week. I finally got around to sewing together the blocks that I received from the Red & Aqua Bee over on flickr. The fabrics are a mix of Reds/Aquas & Pinks from various lines of fabric–Dolly Dresses by Lakehouse, Moda Sweet, Kei Dots, some Lecien and a bunch of other random fabrics. The blocks were made using my tutorial.
Since this is a smaller quilt only 3 blocks by 3 blocks, (an advantage, I suppose to being in a bee where you don’t receive all of your blocks back LOL! ) I thought it was a perfect time to practice some stippling. I enjoy stippling on smaller projects but this is the largest quilt that I have done.
The quilting is far from perfect but it’ll do. Machine quilting is something that I will just need to keep practicing on.
I finished off the quilt with a fun stripey binding.
And a finished quilt! It finishes out at about 41.5″ square. Hopefully this will motiviate me to finish some of my other bee quilts. =)
