Picnic Blog Hop project: completed!

Here is my completed project for the Picnic Party Blog Hop that was hosted by Carol of: Just Let Me Quilt. It is a little quilt that can be used as a snack mat, or a decoration. The color coral reminds me of a summer picnic. This little quilt is going to be a gift for a friend whose birthday is soon this month. Please continue reading for more info, and to comment.


These fabrics are all from my stash, so that's always a good thing, right? The tiny floral is very old, like from 2010. Do you have any fabrics that are that old (lol)? Wishing that fabric were still available, but likely it is not. The quilt pattern is a chevron design. Here are this little quilt's stats:

♦ dimensions: 13"X17.50"

♦ fabrics: 100% cotton fabrics from my stash- solid coral and a tiny floral fabric on off-white background

♦ backing: solid coral 100% cotton fabric

♦ batting: Warm N' Natural©

♦ quilting: machine-stitched free-motion meandering

♦ binding: same tiny floral fabric on off-white background, machine and hand-stitched

♥ Completed WIP/UFO quilts in 2023: 7 ♥


Blessings, Danice G.
