Puss in the Corner
It's a finish!
42 x 60
It's also a donation quilt probably going in a big box with other quilts to Lifting Hands International via the Give Back Box. and then it will travel on to some refugees somewhere in the world.
I made these Puss in the Corner blocks last year as one of my Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) to use scraps. I have enough blocks left for another half quilt so this year I'm making alternate blocks with light centers and corners and dark sides.
I spy popcorn, broccoli, cup with marshmallow, horseshoes and some cats. And darn, I didn't notice that a red block bled on to some cats until now when I looked closely at this photo. I'll have to see what I can do about that. Washing quilts around here is no easy feat when you only have a wringer washer to do laundry.
I quilted it with swirls of gray thread on my DSM.
The backing is a wild and colorful print and the binding is white with a few colored triangles.
And sew on...
Fabulous colors and fun to spy all different things in the fabric. Great job! It will be loved.
ReplyDeletea beautiful scrappy!
ReplyDeleteThat's a quilt looking for someone to hug! Good luck with getting that errant dye out!
ReplyDeleteAnother great finish! Hope you manage to get the red dye bleed out. Do you have a well tried method?
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, fun colors. There's nothing quite as sparkle as brights with white background!

ReplyDeleteVicki Welsh has a great article on fixing bleeds. I was able to fix a red run all over a gray quilt with it. https://www.colorwaysbyvicki.com/save-my-bleeding-quilt.html#/ Maybe you could just submerge that one section. It does work.
