Kindred – Finished!

Kindred – Finished!

Its a miracle.  I made a quilt, from start to finish without getting distracted by other projects.

How, you ask?  Well two reasons:

1 – Bonnie and Camille’s fabrics are too cute not to play with.  If I were limited to making quilts with just one designer’s fabrics for the rest of my life, theirs would definitely be in the running.

2 – My second Frivols box has already been shipped.  I don’t want to get behind!

Without further ado, here is Kindred:

I really did enjoy making this quilt.  The blocks required accurate piecing in order to keep the blocks perfectly square.  The scant quarter-inch seam was a must!

I accidentally miss-cut when I was cutting a few of the prints out.  As with many precut quilts, there wasn’t enough extra fabric to recut so I had to get creative.  Those few blocks have a couple extra seams – oops!

I ordered the finishing kit from the Fat Quarter Shop which came with the backing and binding that I needed for the quilt.  It came with about double the amount of fabric that I needed for the backing so you’ll be seeing more of this cute floral!

Striped binding never disappoints! Kindred (Frivols 1)

I’m saving this one for a baby shower gift!  Kindred (Frivols 1)
