It's much easier to sew down a binding when you don't have a Maine Coon holding you down!

AQ09: Antique Tumbler Quilt

Alternating light and dark tumbler blocks
hand stitched - no borders
87" x 96"


Ah, a fun one in the mystery quilt bundle. Isn't it beautiful? The browns and pinks make you want to pull it up to your chin, tuck it along your sides, and settle in for a lazy Sunday.  This is another one that needs to be completed sooner than later.

The light and dark draws your eyes up

I love this moon fabric!

Making do!  Not enough fabric? Piece it!
Look at those tiny stitches!

Viewed at an angle
Again, I love the use of prints and plaids and stripes, but it was not done with wild abandon. Notice all the patterns are small the light-, medium- and dark- values really stand out.  

Just one more top to share....  Happy Sunday!
