it's binding time again

Two of my recent quilt makes have come back home
and I will be busy adding the bindings sometime over the Easter weekend.

My 'camomile' quilt was custom quilted and looks wonderful
Floral binding? yes please!

And my 'moda love' quilt is quilted in an edge to edge lacy pattern called phoebe . . .



stripey binding? yes please!
- but which one?
My choices are a toss up between an Amy Butler stripey lookalike or a pretty Tilda cream stripe

I ended up using this wonderful Tula stripe in pink & gold, perfect! 



The magic of Leeanne's quilting has just made the whole quiltmaking process so much quicker!
And she's getting to know my quilting preferences really well. 
She has lots more pics of my latest two quilts over here on her ig feed
Linking up with Cynthia for 'oh scrap' here at quiltingismorefunthanhousework

Happy Easter everyone

Looks like you have good plans for the Easter weekend!
I love seeing quilts when they return from the quilter. So exciting!

Wow what lovely quilts. I like the fresh and light colours it gives both quilts some airiness (Not sure if it is the right expression but hope you understand what I'm trying to say)

Those are both just beautiful, Linda! I especially love the chamomile quilt with its green dotted sashings and the pops of pink, too. Your quilter really does a lovely job!

Sooooo gorgeous! What aren't MY quilts this gorgeous?!

Robin said...

Both quilts turned out so nicely with the individual quilting. I kinda wish they were mine. Nice work!

That green floral is divine for the binding choice! Love little details like that.:)
