Constructing the Low Volume Green and Blue Strip Baby Quilt: Part 2

by Judy Tucker


In between doing training with my dogs I did get in some good sewing time this weekend.

The baby quilt top I am working on is done and ready to be quilted.  I'm really pleased with it so far.
I used the sashing to add an element of order to the blocks.  The mother of the baby asked for a "quiet" quilt and I think the sashing helps calm down the strip pieced blocks.  It also makes it look like you are looking at the world through a latticed window.

I'm really looking forward to quilting it.  I am going to do free motion quilting on my domestic sewing machine and plan to add more sky and ocean elements with the quilting.
