Pure Quilt

It's finished! 

Finally!

I saw this awesome tutorial posted at Moda Bake Shop by KarrieLynn @ Freckled Whimsey back in July.

I made mine slightly different - it is smaller and I added a pieced border. 

It measures 62 x 43 - great throw sized quilt.

I pieced it several weeks ago and just last week I finished the quilting and binding. 

The fabric on the quilt top is Pure from Sweetwater for Moda. 

I used one Pure Jelly Roll and one Moda Natural Jelly Roll.

The backing is a fabric I found at The Hobby Lobby.

Along with a pieced strip using the Pure & Natural fabrics from the front to tie it together.

Binding is also from the Hobby Lobby - a dark chocolate brown.

Dear Hobby Lobby, thank you for coming to Orlando.

A close-up of the quilting.  Just small loops. 



This one is kind of a big deal for me. 

First of all, it is the largest quilt that I have made (so far)

Second, it is the first time that there are no overlaps, puckers, whatever you call it, on the back! 

I saw a tutorial at 365 Days of Free Motion Quilting to divide the quilt into quarters and start in the middle.

This is exactly what I was NOT doing. 

So I gave it a try and it worked beautifully.

Thank you!!

I am so happy this one is done, it has been sitting in the corner staring at me for awhile.  Not anymore!
