It's a very traditional quilt, reminiscent of something you'd find in your grandmother's closet, and it is totally inviting.
It's bound with the same fabric as the outer border so that it didn't fight with that pink strip. I had a lot of the border print left over so once the binding was made I cut the rest of it up into binding for future projects because it's been around for quite some time and I was getting tired of seeing it in the stash. The leafy panto gave it a lovely texture.
Roberta had a terrific backing fabric that finished it off beautifully - a large floral print in the softest shell colour. It's a bit tough to photograph, but the pink picks up the pinks in the border on the front so nicely.
I've got another blue quilt to share as well, this one with yellow, but it's still waiting to be bound. Maybe next time....M

You've got to love a blue and neutrals quilt, wth a bit of yellow and green and pink, of course. Nice finish.
A beautiful quilt and so inviting to cuddle under!
What a delightful springtime quilt. You definitely put together lots of blue pieces. 💙 It's amazing how lovely they look side by side. It's a great feeling to finish a few WIPS. Well done
An absolutely beautiful quilt, the colours so warm and inviting. Also enjoyed seeing your hexies in the last post, Marie.
