WIP

It was such a great weekend filled with sunshine, sewing, and catching up with friends.  The 1 year anniversary deadline for the wedding quilt on my to do list is fast approaching and I am happy to report that I have made significant progress!  I used the Puddle Jumping pattern from Thimble Blossoms, but put my own twist on it with a small white border around each block in addition to the sashing.  I used a quilt as you go method and have both halves quilted.  It is close to finished, now I just have to decide on the backing and binding fabrics.  I always seem to wait until the last minute to decide on these.  Does anyone else do that too?



Hop on over to Freshly Pieced for more WIP projects from other fabulous quilters!

    This is lovely, I really like the green you've used for the sashing. I also never know what I'm going to put on the back until the front is finished.

    I have been looking at this pattern. I LOVE the small white border before the sashing. Makes the centers really pop. Great Job!

    Hi Jenn! This is a really lovely quilt! Thank you so much for commenting on my Absolutely, Positively quilt. You are a no-reply blogger, so I could not email you directly back. To answer your question regarding the quilt label, I use a Pigma Micron pen for my labels. I set the ink with a very hot iron, and it is machine washable and will not fade. If you are interested, I have an entire tutorial on how I create and attach the label here-
