two little quilts get their bindings: pt 1

I started out this year making a few quilts from Jolene's @blueelephantstitches two books, a real treasure trove of scrap quilt ideas. I jumped right in, revisiting my scrap fabric baskets again & again. Once I'd pieced two super scrappy quilt tops together, I sent them off to Leeanne @quiltmekiwi and she quilted them beautifully for me. 

This week, I've set about getting both cuddle quilts bound & finished. 

Scrappy 16 patch & sawtooth star

This little one is a simple two-block combo, mixing up my scrappy 16 patches with 3 colour sawtooth stars, using ideas from Jolene's book.
Channeling my inner Jolene vibe, I chose simple straight lines for the quilting.
Backing fabric is a Heather Ross Strawberry print and my binding is Tula Pink's blue & white tent stripe.

I'm linking up today's post with my three favourite linky parties, see R) side bar.

Until next time, Linda
