I decided I needed to stop making quilt tops - briefly- and start finishing a few quilts ... so here's one more finish! Those tiny binding fairies were certainly busy around here overnight! My 'little miss sawtooth' quilt is all finished and on my bed for summer.
I do love a stripey binding, don't you? My binding for this quilt is 'Brocade Stripe' by Snow Leopard Designs that I've had in my stash for ages now. It seems to dance around the edges of the quilt, picking up all the colours.

The backing is a large piece of a Kaffe fabric, 'grey stone flower', and I had it professionally quilted by Leeanne from quiltmekiwi in an edge to edge pattern called 'whisper'. The finished quilt measures 60" x 72".

Until next time, Linda
The Sawtooth is very pretty. Love that low volumr background you do so well!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, that is just beautiful! I really like your choice of colors. I want to make one like it someday. :-)
ReplyDeleteDivine.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so lovely with those softly colored stars on the soft white prints.
ReplyDeleteThe stars are lovely. And the quilting is gorgeous, too.
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful. This one is on my list as well - hope it turns out nearly as nice as yours.
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely, lovely quilt Linda! You are truly an inspiration!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finish. I love striped bindings although the one you used is particularly fabulous!!!
ReplyDeleteI love your Sawtooth Stars with all kinds of different centers! The pretty soft colors of this quilt are perfect for summer. Since it wants to snow where I live, I'll have to live vicariously through your lovely, summery quilt!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations and Gorgeous! The backing is perfect.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, finishes are a good thing.
That's lovely Linda. I keep looking at that quilt thinking one day ....
ReplyDeleteThe satisfaction from finally finishing a quilt is as good as starting a new one.
A beautiful quilt, Linda! Well done on the concentrated effort to get some flimsies to finish mode!
ReplyDeleteI love it! So summery looking! Enjoy your summer, we had snow last evening here. Happy Stitching!
