Audrey's quilt

This quilt was made by four of us.  It's made with one pack of 10" layer cake with the plain fabric which we bought in metres and cut to 10" squares.   We worked like a production line.  One of us would cut, another one sew and so forth..  It was fun..

My task now is to quilt....

All done...after washing... hung it out to dry!!!

I used multi-coloured thread to quilt the pattern.  The thread is almost the same colour as the printed fabric.   It is very fast for the machine to do the quilting stitches but like  I said earlier the pain is putting the hoop on!!  After doing all the embroidery quilting, I just did ditch stitching along the blocks.

I decided to use the embroidery machine to quilt the squares. The most difficult thing about using the embroidery machine is putting the hoop on!  It took a lot of time and also my fingers hurt just to tighten the hoop...  I think it took less time for the machine to quilt the pattern!!!!

Basting it on the table with safety pins...

Added the same beige fabric for the border.  For some reason, I like quilts with very uniform colour coordination!!  

I have another set of the same layer cake.  Thinking of the next project but don't know what pattern yet....  Time to browse the internet for inspirations!!!

Added a dark print to bring out the colour.  Will use the same beige print for the border.  I like the colour combination.
