It’s done. With the
exception of a label, my pink and brown scrappiness is complete. I have deep love for the scrappy quilts, not that
I don’t appreciate a well thought out color coordinated quilt, but there’s
really something special to me about a scrappy mixture of fabrics. The only matchy match thing I like to do is
make the binding the same fabric as the last border. When making my MIL a smaller version of my
pink and brown, I pretty much used all the same fabrics – even the final
border. Did it occur to me to cut my
binding before completing her quilt?
No. When it came time to do the final touches to mine, I was out of the brown/rose fabric. After some deep digging in
the stash, nothing looked good up against the border. Thinking I was putting too much thought into
it, I decided to use this striped fabric. I think it will have to grow on me....
