My sweet, sweet neighbor Teri used to sew garments a lot.
She loves my quilts and wanted to try to make a quilt. So one day she bought this quilt kit, which is squares and rectangles and easy sashing and border.
We went slowly as she didn’t really have quilty equipment. She had a new upgraded sewing machine, but we had a time figuring out the settings for her quarter-inch foot.
BUT, here’s her almost finished quilt, quilted by longarm quilter Kim McPeake, who also installed the binding. Next Teri will learn how to sew down the binding. **That border is a luscious warm navy.
The backing is the rich red floral.
The feature fabric is this quilt is the “rainbow row” houses in Old Town Charleston. And here you can see Kim’s beautiful floral quilting in a pale blue.
Here’s Teri with her quilt.
The quilt is beautiful, but the woman is too (inside and out).
This pattern is a Wild and Wooly quilt kit, and Wild and Wooly is one of our local quilt (and knitting) shops. They have an online store.
