Tilda Coin Quilt

Another finish! This is made with a Tilda "jelly roll", and a cream fabric, with the same cream used for the backing. I had another pack of Tilda fabrics (one eighths?), and had just enough of the pink flower fabric for the binding. 

I stitched in the ditch down the sides of the coin strips, then used the curvy stitch along the adjoining seams on each of the coins, and set the curvy stitch as large as possible and quilted down the length of the cream strips, and all around the border strips.

Could have been neater and smoother, but I don't have a surface I can put everything on to lay out the sandwich! 

Not quite large enough for a double bed, but it's the largest quilt I've made so far. The "design" is all mine, I just made it up as I went along. 

 

Weird, but I'd looked through the pack of fabrics a couple of times and didn't think I had anything to go with the fabrics from the 2.5" strips ... and then I looked again and three of the fabrics were ones I'd used in the quilt, but in different colours. This pink fabric is the one I had most of, and I think it looks really pretty next to the cream border. I kept thinking of strawberry and vanilla ice cream all the time (two days!) I was hand stitching the back of the binding 😊 And, because it's from the same fabric collection the colours of the binding fabric match the colours in a couple of the other fabrics.
