Next Up Under Max's Needle - Feisty



Feisty is next up on the FMQ list.

(quilt top reveal post HERE)

This is the variegated top thread I've chosen.




The backing plan has changed.

And yes, this is the same backing fabric I used

(Alexander Henry "birds of a feather" 2007)




This is the single-color bobbin thread I'll use.




At the last minute I decided to add 3" borders all around.

The top looks more grounded now -
and yes, I'll square those corners after FMQ.




Here's a better look at the Kaffe fabric I used for the borders
and the binding (another last minute change).

Stay tuned . . .

I like this quilt top and love the backing fabric. The binding fabric is perfect too. How could you not smile when you see this all these parts come together.
