Hade lite problem med att bestämma vilken färg jag skulle ha på ramen runt denna men till slut bestämde jag mig för ett varmrött tyg med prickar. I had some problems desiding the border colour but eventually I desided to go with this varm red with dots.
Jag övade på täcket jag sydda av batikremsorna så när jag gav mig på denna gick det enklare. I had no trouble findinding lots of inspiration on freehandquilting with a home machine. At first it didn´t go very well and I couldn´t find what I did wrong. That is until I found out that my machine had three positions for the presserfoot and for this I should use the middle one, not up or down. After that I used the quilt I made with my batic jellyroll strips. I just tried to get a rythm and after a while it was easier even though maby not the prettiest.
Jag fick äntligen användning för border kviltmallen jag köpt för men inte använt förrens nu. I finally got to use the border stencil I´ve had fore a while but not used.
Det lila täcket har fått kantband men det är inte färdigsytt än...
Detta är mina pågående projekt just nu.
Now I just have to chose a bindning fabric and attatch that. But I can´t deside what to use. What colour should I use? The same as border or contrasting?
I have sewn a binding on the purple quilt but I have some handstitching left to do.
This is my WIP´s right now.Linking up to WIP wednwsday.
Binding depends on the effect you're going for! If you want an extra little oomph, go for a stark contrast -- otherwise keep it similar to the border :)
