Love how the quilting turned out on this one! I didn’t really have a plan and was a bit worried.
Just wish I could get the plum sashing (it’s not brown) around the blocks to photograph correctly. Brushing up on my photographic skills is quickly plummeting on the list.
I got ahead of myself and ordered some more Smitten Kitten for backing when I found it and then of course switched to flannel.
Which the flannel of course had its own spot on the front of the quilt too.
Some other favorite prints nestled in.
Including the wee block, which someone commented earlier that, “You just couldn’t help yourself, could you?”
Oh, and the binding dilemma. Here are the contenders.
I almost went stripe and chickened out at the last minute.
I think I feel a Beginner Quilting Class coming on for this one, plus a lap size with chambrays, but a little less predictable.
Next on the list is quilting this big boy, which isn’t going so well. I might be getting friendly with my seam ripper.
And then onto its Value Quilt sister which I’m as equally puzzled with how I’m going to quilt.
Of course there is a new pile of fabrics brewing too.
Thanks everyone for supporting my destash! I had to shell out some cash to have my passport expedited for our weekend in Vancouver and of course support my own fabric indulgence. I pulled a ton from the stash last night to list when I get back.
See you next week!

I love the plummy sashing strips around the blocks. I initially would have chosen the stripes for binding as well, but I think you definitely made the right choice. The zigzag quilt is one of my favorites!
And I was the lucky recipient of some of your destash. Woohoo!!

Love it – I’ve got a whole pile of the flannel and still thinking what to do with it. Love all The binding options! although the green is super cool

The quilting on “tilted” is so, so, so clever with that quilt design. Very cool!
Debbie says
Your tilted quilt is great – love the quilting you did! It was fun to see your binding choices – the one your picked is perfect!
Marit says
Love your tilted design, the colors, print and quilting! Fun to see your selection of binding – “maybies”.
Wish you luck with your next in line – that zig zag is on my top 10 ten list…
