Orphan Barney
It's a finish!
42 x 48
I made this top and several others last year when I was working to clear out the block orphanage. Every so often some folks send me orphan blocks and I put them in the orphanage until it gets full and then I dig in and see if I can put any blocks together into a quilt or two or three. Last year I surprised myself and made 13 orphan block tops. I did not make any of the blocks in this quilt.
I quilted this one with vertical lines. I had just enough of a muticolor fabric to use for the binding. And the backing is a sweet patchwork fabric.
The theme this month in my sewing space is March Madness (Quilting) Marathon. I'm going to concentrate on finishing up a lot of the small tops I have in the TBQ (to be quilted) pile. They will then be donated to:
