WIP Wednesday: Low Volume Baby Quilt

Today I'm auditioning binding for this low volume baby quilt top I made on the weekend. 

I'm trying to use up as much of my scraps and stash as possible at the moment. I really need to stop buying new fabric and start using what I have. So far, it hasn't been a challenge!

WIP Wednesday: Plumb Quilt

Last night I pin basted, quilted, and put the binding on the front. I'm very happy with the quilting on this one.

It's a bit overcast today and Master 2 wanted to 'help' me with the photos. 

I have also finished quilting this one and sewn the binding onto the front. 

I used this black and white spot binding. Now I just need to get to machine binding and I will have three finished quilts!

Max & Whiskers Quilt

This is what I was doing yesterday morning to get this sweet little Max & Whiskers quilt finished for the shop. Although I prefer the look of a hand sewn binding, I machine bind all my quilts for the shop as it's much quicker and I like to think that it makes it more secure (I'm not very confident about my hand sewing ability). Yes, those are bobby pins. It makes it so much easier than pinning, in my opinion, as you just sew up to them, lift the foot, and pull them off. No pins getting stuck in the feed dogs.

Since the natural light is so poor in my house, I took Master Almost 2 to the park out the front to take some photos of it. He loves being outside and getting outdoors is a nice way to break up the day when you have things to do at home. 

This quilt would be perfect for a little boy and is for sale here on my Facebook page.
