Earthly Paradise: rail fence quilt finished

You may recall that last year I won a gorgeous jelly roll of Earthly Paradise fabric from/designed by: Barbara Brackman of: Civil War Quilts Blog. Such luscious colors and designs in these late 19th-early 20th century reproduction fabrics. Sending more thanks to Barbara. Be sure to check-out her historical + fun blog. Guess what else. 'Tried a new quilting stitch: wavy lines (part of my #2018 Planning Party goals). Here is the finished rail fence quilt, and it's stats:

♦finished size: 36" square

♦fabrics: 100% cottons from Barbara Brackman's Earthly Paradise collection

♦backing: solid brown 100% cotton

♦binding: same solid brown as the backing, done by machine and hand

♦batting: Hobbs Heirloom® Natural 100% Cotton

♦machine quilting: horizontal wavy lines

♥ Completed WIP quilts in 2018: 6 ♥
