#11: Nordic Quilt

Here is it – number 11 in the “52 weeks of crafting” challenge. Mind you, technically it’s week 17, so I’m behind by 6 makes… I should try some small projects for a bit perhaps.

The photos are distinctly average, because as I threw the quilt on the bed to photograph it, it started hailing. What’s up with the weather at the moment?

I mentioned earlier in the week that I’d bought a copy of Jacquie Gering’s class on Craftsy on quilting with your walking foot*, and I’m really pleased I did. I feel like my walking foot quilting is a million times better having taken a load of her advice on this one.

You might be interested in the post where I worked out what I’d have to sell this quilt for.

I picked up this fabric from a Massdrop* deal. You should head on over and see what they have in their quilting section.

Also note – cute little label for secret project.

Next time – something more adventurous. I like the look of the spiral quilting from Jacquies class – and I have a whole load of Cotton + Steel fabric* to use!
