Hot on the heels of Bedazzled, is her sister Beribboned!
‘
This is another interlocking design, which features two fabrics that cascade down the quilt top like interlocking ribbons. (If you follow the pressing directions, all seams lock, which makes it really simple to put together.) It uses only 2 blocks and they are simple!
This time I used a white background with 3 Kona Brights charm packs, but you could use prints too! Oh – please send pictures!
As always, Deborah Norris did a fantastic job with the quilting…
Look how she used both ribbon colors in the quilting so the green pops on the pink and vice versa! |
Looking down the ribboned rows… |
I really love the litttle echoed feathers that curve around themselves in the background. Really, really love them. Thanks, Deborah!
