So this little piece has been on the table waiting for the finishing touches. It still needs a back and finishing edge. I have two options - one is to make an envelope with the backing face to face with the front. Then turn it inside out. Once the backing is on- then I was thinking about adding a zig zag thin stripe in a very light blue or metallic one inch inside the edge- as if it were a window. The second way is to add the backing - traditional way and then apply a simple binding using the blue background to three sides and purple to the bottom. This binding has to be very thin. Then the same zig zag stripe in light blue could be applied. This quilt measures 20" x 29" and is made by applique in dyed cotton and batik.
Yesterday it snowed heavily and I spent the day inside knitting. This morning the sun is very bright on the white snow. I have this sunny day to quilt and finish projects I had started. There are two more in the works.
