This finish is a long time coming! September 2011 is when I asked my Fall Bee Mates to create Wonky Square Blocks for me. At the time, I had not figured out what style I liked so I used the dotted fabric as my color palette choices. Obviously, this was the beginning of my entrance into modern quilting as I included green (not a color I care for now).
I was going to do some FMQ on this but when the time came to do it, I just wasn't feeling it, so I used a curvy stitch from my machine to do horizontal lines.
Something new that I tried with this quilt was machine binding. Never again! Hand binding is enjoyable to me. Machine binding was a bit more difficult. I had to keep checking the other side to make sure I was catching it and I got stuck from my pins a lot too. It may be that with machine bindings I would need to have a bigger strip. I prefer 2" bindings currently and that was probably a hindrance.
In any event, it's done and I am oh so happy to move this very old WIP to the completed list!
I am connecting to the Let's Get Acquainted Link Up today - go see what every one else is making too!
