This small quilt was made from stretch fabrics given to me by a friend. I made the central section entirely in the hoop and then made the borders in strips to sew on. I use voile as a base fabric to build up the blocks and stretch toweling inside (both also given by the friend).
The quilt is backed with lightweight fleece and then tied with embroidery floss.

Looks just perfect. I love seeing things made out of whatever is on hand or something that is gifted.
So many people think you can only do items if you have all the proper things. Like a Quilt has to be expensive quilters cotton. Well you have proved it isn't so.
Thanks for showing us. I know a lot of people have to watch their pennies so this may just encourage some to do something with what they have or see going out cheap.
