A Hand Sewn Quilt

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/hand-sewn-quilt • Posted by Regina K.

A quilt I finished a few years ago. The picture kind of sucks but it was too big to stretch out anywhere else at the time. I hand sewn everything I don't know exactly how long it took since I worked on it off and on but it took a while. :D Whatever is machine sewn is from fabrics that were pre-patch worked when I bought them, everything is done by hand. The colors are a bit much for me now but I love each little scene I did on random parts of the blanket, some of them I put up separate pictures for. The backing is green fleece, hand sewn around the edges and attached using a simple tie method. I used fabric I bought on sale, as was broke at the time and still am, or fabric I had extra from other projects or clothes and fabric people gave me. I bought fabric in semi large quantities so I always have scraps and I was really big into making hand sewn applique scenes for a while.
