After making the strawberry and pineapple mini quilts a little while ago, there was still a little bit of space on the kitchen wall and most "experts" say things should be done in 3s when you decorate so I decided to make a small apple.
Just like I did for the strawberry, I used red and green scraps and made the background with Kona White. The binding is an old print I've had in my stash forever!
For the quilting, again, like I did for the other two minis, I stitched paisleys in the red squares, dense back and forth lines in the brown, a small feather in the green leaf and pebbles in the background.
It finishes at about 18" square. And I'm happy to report that this is finish number 1 on my Q2 FAL list.

Looks great....and love the quilting too!
ReplyDeleteCute!!! Perfect for a kitchen :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat kitchen decor, Izzy! I have got to figure out that paisley design; a friend has a new baby girl named Paisley, so it would be perfect for her baby quilt. Your quilting designs are so clean and neat.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up with TGIFF. I am loving all the quilts on display and the visits, too.

I like the paisley quilting. Great finish. I'm sure it looks great with the other two.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a happy quilt, great for the kitchen wall. Your quilting is beautiful too. Thank you for participating in the FAL, on behalf of the 2016 global hosts.
