The quilting on the Fun with Bricks is now finished. I haven't bound it yet, but thought I'd share a picture of the backing fabric which is a recycled duvet cover. The quilting pattern seems to work quite nicely with the boats - think choppy seas!
Last weekend I was going through my stash to find anything I was willing to part with at my Guild's auction night. I found several pieces that had been hanging about too long, together with 64" of this cute Easter bunny print. I think I thought it would do for a backing, but I've never found a quilt to put it on. I decided to hang onto it and make a couple of incubator covers. There's not enough without adding borders, so I found some solids/nearly solids in my stash to co-ordinate. I'm thinking I could practice some fancy quilting here ... need to rewatch my Patsy Thompson feathers DVD :)
