A Finished Granny

Yay! I finished the Flea Market Fancy Granny Squares quilt! It's washed, dried and all crinkley!
I chose to bind it in red. The print has microdots. It's one of my favorites. (Please forgive the fold lines. I had the quilt all folded and ready to go when the sun decided to show itself and I thought I'd try for some half decent pictures!)

For the back I used the leftover Granny Squares I had from the strip sets.

I hope she loves it! Have a great weekend!

This is beautiful. I think I am going to use my FMF for a granny square quilt.

It is beautiful, and that red binding....one of my favorite fabrics. I bet I have 4 or 5 yards of it......and the really insane thing about it is that I only use it to make little hand stitched lady bugs. How much fabric does it take to make a lady bug you ask? A circle the size of a nickel, which makes the lady bug the size of the head of a large pin. Not sure if I have any pictured on my blog yet or not. Will have to get that done if the sun ever shines here for good pictures.

If she doesn't love it you know where to send it, right?

Kim said...

Lovely! I have to admit that I joined the granny squares quilt - along as a fill in while I waited for a fabric order, but the finished quilt now lives in our living room and I love it so much I'm thinking of doing another. Funny how some quilt patterns get you like that!

Erin @ Why Not Sew? Quilts said...

Thank you all so much!

It's terrific!! I'm inspired to start quilting mine. Did you stipple it all over? I can't decide how to quilt mine. I've been leaning toward a basic stipple-I think you've just convinced me!!

Lori said...
