\"DSCN2901\"<\/a>I was thinking about quilting this quilt<\/a> with a serpentine stitch.\u00a0 Thank goodness I tested the serpentine stitch on a leftover block, because I saw that it really didn’t work with the skinny lines – it made them look really wobbly.\u00a0 I’ll save that stitch for another quilt.<\/p>\n

So, back to my original plan of horizontal straight-line stitching.\u00a0\u00a0 I was thinking of a medium gray binding, but instead went with my default color – chartreuse.\u00a0 I’m really happy with how it looks – in fact, I think this is my favorite modern quilt I’ve made to date. I didn’t have a sketch or plan – just an idea in my head, and it turned out even better than I had imagined it.\u00a0 I’ll be showing at the VMQG meeting next week, as my entry to the Michael Miller Cotton Couture<\/a> challenge.<\/p>\n
