SAHRR, Making It A Double

I am happy to be keeping up with the directives so far on this Stay At Home Round Robin. This week's prompt was from Kathleen McMusing to "Make It A Double". It can be anything that has "double" in its name, or related to number 2. 

I took the easy road and chose a simple double churn dash. Because the last border was hourglass blocks, I felt a simpler border would be more complimentary. But that also means that next week I have to step it up! 

After auditioning fabrics, I decided upon the bubblegum pink and bright yellow with orange swirls. I love this combination as it reminds me of candy for some reason. 

I added a plain white coping border, but when I added the first churn dash border I realized that I did not extend it on all sides (see pic), thus the corner is a bit different than the pink border...but I like it. Sometimes errors can be serendipity! 


 So she is pressed and ready for the next round. Thank you, Kathleen for hosting our entries! 

 

I finally made the time to go up north and pick up my gray double 4-patch quilt that was done at my long arm quilter. I took up 2 more tops to be quilted. One was my Tilda Christmas top.

And the other was a leader/ender project that I finished, my Christmas Irish Chain. 

So when they get back and I put the bindings on, I will be ready for Christmas this December. 

It has been very cold in our area these past 2 weeks. It was minus 12 degrees last night. Brr. This was the view of my road after turning out of the driveway Thursday. The main roads were better...but not by much. I hope everyone is staying warm and safe!



 Happy Stitching!
