STRIP PLUS QUILT

OK, I still need to put the binding on this one.

I am waiting for my Bernina 740 to get back from spa day.

If its not finished soon...I will use my Bernina 440.

I like the dual feed on the 740, sew I should just wait!

It's been a spa month but I was told 6 weeks, sew....🙁

My good friend Kim Hensley, of Happily Every Quilting,

did the longarm quilting and isn't it lovely!

We decided on a fun E2E design called

Mr. Marbles and white thread.

I love the curved quilting against the geometric pluses.

The colors just pop on the white background.

I used an older jelly roll, Reel Time, by Zen Chic. 

I wanted a gray, mustard, green and black color scheme.

I pulled out the blues and oranges.

The backing by Alison Glass was a super buy at

Zincs Warehouse in Berlin, OH.

I thought the X and + design of white on gray

was perfect.

Last August, Kim brought the quilt to a quilt retreat 

we attended, at Newkirk House in Newark OH.

I did have some left over PLUS blocks

and will make either pillows or a table runner

with some other fabrics I found in my stash.

I love everything about this journey.

The quilt finished at 60" x 69"

Quilting is sew much fun!

The binding has been ready...

Let's roll!
