bathsheba bound


binding on "bathsheba" is complete. i suppose she's finished; she's in use. i do plan to add some handstitching, but she's essentially finished.



traditionally, i use a herringbone flannel to bind my liberty + chambray/crossweave quilts. i found some lovely woolies flannels by bonnie sullivan for maywood studios in various colors at fat quarter shop, which is what i used for this quilt.

d4 and i had a pleasant crafting afternoon on saturday, she making bows for christmas presents and i handbinding, while we watched a series of disney movies i like to sing along with: coco, encanto, and moana.


 i love the slightly masculine touch it adds to this quilt, yet it's soft at the same time. 

after all that quilting and machine binding i did recently, i have several more handbinding projects in the works, which means some more finishes coming up!
