HQAL – 29th Jan 2023

Hi everyone

I have been removing loads of paper squares from my Nashville Quilt and I am glad to have finished that now and have cut the backing fabric as the length I ordered wasn’t wide enough or long enough I had to piece it top and side. The patchwork top and batting and backing piece are now pin basted ready to start the quilting. My husband is getting quite excited…

So here is the photo of the top laid out sideways on our 3 seated sofa.

I am going to quilt it with diagonal lines on all the small squares and then sew around the inside of the poster art squares. Hopefully that will look alright. The backing is just plain black in case you were wondering what I had used.

Well that is all for now, please visit the other members listed below to see what they are creating.

This Hand Quilt Along is an opportunity for hand quilters and piecers to share and motivate one another. We post every three weeks, to show our progress and encourage one another.  If you have a hand quilting project and would like to join our group contact Kathy at the link below.
