this is not the “right” way but this is the way I do it
i am using a buttercream matelasse for my back with 2 prints of ivory and cream from Bits and Pieces by Fabri-Quilt and some of my stash of “all cotton” from Alexander Henry.
as my helper is helping to illustrate, i make my throws without batting. the matelasse is a substantial weight and I use these all year round so I like how they feel and look without. I love strips whether they are all the same fabric or blocks. I seam the strips right onto the backing ~ quilting (straight rows) as I go. Is this according to the rules? no … but I like it, it’s fun, and it’s quick
i’ll be finishing this up soon and will most likely have the finished project pictures tomorrow ((hugs)) rosie
