On Saturday, during show and tell, June showed her Virginia Bound quilt. Â You can find the pattern in Bonnie Hunter’s Scraps & Shirttails: Reuse, Re-pupose, Recycle! The Art of “Quilting Green”
I am so sorry that the picture is not light enough so that you can see it the best. Â The quilt is wonderful. Â She put an applique border on the quilt…not lots of applique, just some. Â She also big stitched the quilt. Â It’s wonderful and she does a nice job.
June says she used #12 Pearl Cotton. Â Kelli and I are getting some and trying big stitch on our Virginia Bound quilts. Â Neither of us EVER, EVER, thought we would be doing any hand quilting but June has us thinking we are going to give it a try.
Stay tuned…hopefully by fall I’ll have the quilt done and will be snuggling under it as I hand quilt it.
