So this is my first attempt at being an "old lady" as my husband calls it, or quilting as its formally referred to. I decided that I wanted an easy sewing project, obviously quilting probably isnt an average first time project, but I found this one online and it looked really simple. It is nothing but a lot of straight lines, which so far I can handle! The quilt consists of 30 of each 3" squares, 6" squares, and 9" squares. They are then pinned together and sewn. I decided to have a red, black, and white quilt since we are a Georgia Bulldog family!
Here are two of the squares pinned together before sewing.


After all of the squares are sewn individually, they are sewn together in strips of 5 (vertically in the photo) and then all of the strips are sewn together. This is the finished front side.

Wow, your quilt looks beautiful!!!

ReplyDeleteI love the fabrics! I wanted to do a crimson quilt for us (Roll Tide) but the store I was at didn't have a good selection of reds...so I went greens and brown. I'm getting ready to baste my quilt this week so I'll let you know how it goes.
