I have had a red and white snowball quilt on my quilt wish list to make since like forever. Finally, I did it!
I started in February 2018 after Temecula Quilt Co. posted a scrappy snowball a-long, I decided to make mine scrappy red and whites. I could not be happier with how it turned out!
I still need to add the binding. 🙂 I tried to make blocks here and there throughout 2018 with a goal of having it finished by Christmas. Well, that did not happen. I knew it was a lofty goal, but I was determined to not allow this to become another longterm UFO. So, I set my next goal to Valentine’s Day, which I have all but made sans the binding, which I can deal with.
If you have followed me on IG or FB, I have posted pics of progress here and there.
Progress on my design wall. It was awesome when I was vacuuming my studio and I blew half of my blocks off…or not.
Details:
-I machine quilted on my Innova using the Sunrise Clam computerized pattern. I do offer computerized machine quilting at a special price here.
-I used Superior’s Omni thread on the top and Magna-glide prewound bobbins. Batting is a ton of leftover scraps.my quilt finishes at about 73.5″ x 73.5″.
-I made my quilt 18 blocks across by 18 down. 324 blocks total, 1620 pieces!
-I tried to use fabrics from my stash and scraps, but I did buy a few fabrics to add too. Naturally.
-It was a fun project to work on! Mostly now I like to just stand back and admire it. lol
Now to get that binding on!
