Although I might be better off preparing other stuff, I am currently totally fixated on finishing my smaller, older WIPs from my List für Q3.
So after getting back on Sunday from a choir competition I basted and quilted the first baby quilt from the two drunkards path.
I tried some – for me new – wavy line quilting and I’m generally pleased with it. At some places I had problems with the stitch length, probably I wasn’t paying enough attention, moving too fast and/ or haven’t set up the walking foot correctly. But it’s just in some places and for it going to be a charity baby quilt, I do not mind it being not totally perfect. Done is better than perfect :)
The last days I attached the label, squared it up and cut some binding strips. At this pace I am confident to have it finished at the weekend. #yeahhh
Linking up at WIP Wednesday @ Freshly Pieced
It looks beautiful!
I really like your drunkard’s path. It’s got such a wide range of colors but it still feels very balanced. Can I ask where you got your tags with your name and washing / care instructions?
I designed my labels myself in a graphic program and had them printed on cotton fabric by the German company Stoff-Schmiede. The company is like spoonflower. I just iron them on (double sided adhesive/ vlies) and sew around with a zig zag stich for good meassure.
Oh, I’m so glad you’ve pulled this back out… it will make for a lot of nice catching up at our next get together. Crossing my fingers for your weekend finish!
I love your baby quilt! The scrappy Drunkard’s Path blocks make an awesome quilt!
A lovely scrappy quilt… Drunkard’s Path has always been a favourite of mine!
