Mystery Quilt Finished...

This was a small retreat (big girl sleep-over)
that I hosted at my house last fall.
Our local quilt store owner, generously agreed to
do a Mystery Quilt class for us.
There were many pieces...lots of cutting and sewing.
But, we all had so much fun!
This is my first bias binding in over
35 years! A friend convinced me that
the stripes had to be on the bias.
I'm thinking that... this kitty thinks it's
her quilt?

Beautiful! The quilt AND the kitty! I did my first bias binding in November, and I love the way it turned out. Yours is perfect for the quilt.

Love the quilt ESPECIALLY the binding. You have a very good friend.

The bias does lend a certain touch - especailly when you use thin stripes - and a sewing retreat at home - excellent idea!!

Very, very pretty kitty and quilt! I love how your bias binding worked out to have the stripes on the bias!
