Monkey Wrench
40 x 60
It's a finish!
10 inch Monkey Wrench blocks in greens. I was sewing up some odds and ends of different sizes of HSTs and found matching sets of four green HSTs so that was a spark for the quilt.
Quilted in swirls on my DSM.
The backing. The binding is scrappy greens -- binding pieces left over from other quilts.
I almost didn't want to part with the backing so full of butterflies.
This will probably go to Quilts Beyond Borders when I have a full box.
And sew on...
pretty...this one and interweave!
ReplyDeleteThis is really pretty--Love how the "crosses" po out in those lovely colors neat backing--I can see how you'd want to keep it hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Love this quilt.
ReplyDeleteSew effective! Oh dear, now you’ve added another “I must make some Monkey Wrenches blocks “ to my list! Your block ideas are tempting me - I think I’m becoming an addict!
ReplyDeleteyou are on a roll!!!
ReplyDeletethis is another one that is just wonderful!!!
I like the "chunkiness" of the monkey wrench blocks together. It reminds me that I have a bunch from another quilt I started that I wasn't happy with. Maybe I can fill in that one and donate it.
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks, great quilt, lovely backing. (I'm making MWs right now, too.)
ReplyDeleteMonkey Wrenches in green are so pretty and then you used one of my all time favorite green/butterfly prints for the back. I think I still have a small piece of that fabric in my floral stash.
ReplyDeleteLove those green Monkeys! And that back is gorgeous - no wonder it's so hard to part with!
ReplyDeleteAnother pretty Monkey Wrench. Greens are so charming.
ReplyDeleteGosh Cathy I'm really having trouble keeping up with your beautiful finishes! Cool green fabrics in the Monkey Wrench and it's good to see Interweave, one I'd like to make I think.
ReplyDeleteI love all the fabrics in the quilt- how well they all worked together and made such a refreshing quilt.
