It's A Finish! Valued Coins

It's a finish!
Valued Coins
63 x 76



To make this type of quilt I had to decide upon size and then have all the pieces cut  and sorted by value before the sewing began. 

I quilted it with vertical lines on my sewing machine (Brother PQ1500SL). 



The binding is a floral. The backing is a gently used sheet from the thrift store. 

And sew on...

CELEBRATE! (My word of the year)

Nov. 9 -- Another book finished!  - A mystery thriller  - Cold Lake by Jeff Carson. It is book #5 in the David Wolf series. I've read the previous 4 books in the series in the past. After I finished this one I started right away on book #6 in the series.

Amazing! I like how you grouped some many random fabrics by value. I’ve been reading many of your older posts & you’ve inspired me to use all sorts of scraps - thank you! Beth in AL

The gradation really makes these scraps sing!

I am enjoying the book Happiness for Beginners by Katherine Center. I appreciate your book referrals. I have read some of the books you have recommended. I thought I would return the favor.

I like how you used the value to draw your eye all over the quilt!! Beautiful!

I clipped this pattern a while back and would love to make. I have enough scraps certainy. Love yours!

Great scrap buster. The gradation makes the quilt even more interesting than just the scraps, which ALWAYS make interesting quilts. Thanks for the inspiration, once again. This one is going in my to-do list too. Enjoy the next book. ;^)

I don't know how you managed to make this quilt without a design wall. I love how it fades off in and out of the middle - so creative!
