Happy Monday friends! As I mentioned last Friday, I've been busy with a lot of sewing projects. This second quilt that I finished was for my parents' 30th anniversary. The one I made for them in college had been slowly falling apart, and I've been wanting to make them another one. Now that they finally received it over the weekend (sorry it's a month late!), it's safe to share it with you all.. ;)
Like my EZ scrap quilt, this one's also 45" x 60" (crib-size). My parents like to keep theirs on the sofa as a lap blanket, so I didn't need it to be too big.
For the white borders and the backing, I used a flat sheet again to keep the quilt soft on the underside.
For the binding, I just used the leftover scraps, cut them into 2.5" wide strips and sewed them all together.
So yeaahhhh... I think I'm good on quilts for a while. ;) Hope you all enjoyed this simple quilt pattern!
Be back soon with a stenciled project I just completed for our dining room. :)
