Welcome to Rainbow Hare on another Fresh Sewing Day! I’m keeping up my resolution to link up with Lynne at Lily’s Quilts every month of 2013 – so only ten more to go!
 |
| Trade Winds 96″ x 96″ |
So at last the big Taaaaa-Daaaaa!!!
I had planned on stunning garden photos but now the snow is gone and we just have mud, mud and more mud so inside it is.
 |
| pinwheels arranged as butterflies with a simple border of square blocks. |
 |
| the binding really isn’t as garish as it looks in this photo… |
After the wonderful response when I asked what I should use to bind this quilt, I decided on grey because I didn’t have enough coordinating scraps. But then I realised that I’d have soooo many joins I decided to go for a solid and this was the only matching one I could find.

| a glimpse of the back |
And then to celebrate my finish and getting my beloved quarter inch foot back on the machine I decided to start something completely different. Are you tripping along?
