This weekend I spent some time making quilt backs. For far too long I’ve been just making quilt tops and then storing them in the closet. I finally decided to pull them all out and get them finished (it would be really fun to have them all finished before the end of the year, but I don’t think that will actually happen!)
I made four quilt backs, and Morgan basted them for me so hopefully soon there will be some finished quilts to show!
Remember this quilt? I started this one at the end of the summer, right around the same time I found out I was pregnant. For some reason, the colors in this one made me sick every time I saw it, so it was quickly hidden away in the closet. But now I’m happy to see it again, and it was fun to make up this bright colorblock backing for it.
And even though I have a stack of quilts that need quilting, that doesn’t stop me from pulling out fabrics for new quilts. If there’s time, perhaps I’ll make a start on this boy quilt. I’ve been hanging onto this gnome fabric for far too long and it’s time to actually sew with it!
