I've put the last stitch in the binding of the minions quilt and waited for daylight to show it off to you all.
As I was about to quilt, I also thought of using some of the leftover squares to make a mini or dolly sized quilt for young Charlie's big sister. I wanted to try out an idea for embellishing the tumblers, but after trialling it on the sampler quilt, changed my mind and instead stitched in the ditch for the bigger quilt.
I am very well pleased about the change in the texture of the quilt by using the seersucker. I am also aware that my backing is not centred by about an inch and a half, but have let that go, otherwise it would be eating me up.
Hoping to present this to the family next weekend - along with the big fairy princess quilt which is due back from the quilters on Wednesday in time for me to finish stitching the binding....
Thanks for looking I've really enjoyed this process.
