I finished up two quilts this past week. The first is this flannel WIP from a few years back. After a run through the washer and dryer, it looks almost as good as new.
I think it might be my favorite quilt I’ve made, even though while I was making it I wasn’t sure how I felt about the funky fabrics and bright solids.
The purple backing and striped binding really make me love it even more.
The final quilt measures 63 x 78 inches. It is made from Joann’s flannel and doesn’t have any batting. It’s a good weight without being too heavy. In this photo of the binding you can see how I machine attached it with a zig-zag stitch. I highly recommend this method.
I’ve got another finish from last weekend. Here is a sneak peak and I’ll be posting about it later this week.

I think it so much fun to take out the WIPS and get them finished!! Gratification at its finest;) I am leaning toward starting more projects at a time to be able to call them WIPS too. I am weird that way I GUESS!
