It's A Finish : Trip Around The World

Trip Around The World (TATW)
It's a finish!
54 x 72



And now it is finally finished. I quilted it with spirals in lime green thread on my Brother sewing machine. 

The binding is scrappy and the pieces came out of the leftover binding box. The backing is plaid. I bought what was left on the bolt at a greatly reduced price back when Hancock Fabrics went out of business which was in July 2016. There was enough of it for the back of this quilt and another of similar size. 

And sew on...

What a pretty quilt!

The cool palette is great! The challenge with scrappy trips blocks is to unstitch the rows in the proper order. (Speaking from experience!)

Love the colours in this quilt - very rich looking. Royal even which is well timed for the Coronation of our King Charles III on Saturday.

I love the beautiful, rich tones in this quilt! Isn't it great how elevated scraps can be in a design like this?
