Blogger's Quilt Festival ROYGBIV

AmysCreativeSide.com
 
My second entry into the Blogger's Quilt Festival is another bee quilt and I've chosen it because it was a popular quilt at Fat Quarterly Retreat. It was made to donate to the charity Siblings Together and used 2.5" squares in a rainbow of colours, each bee member made two blocks with the star randomly placed. It was made for a child and fits the brief well.
 

 
The binding was made from my box of 2.5" scrap strips and roughly follows the rainbow around the quilt. The binding was adhered to the back of the quilt with Steam a seam and then machine stitched down from the front.
 
 
The quilt was quilted on my long arm with a pattern called Allium on a Tula Pink backing.
 
 
 
Do go and have a look at all of the entries on Amy's blog. Voting starts on 1 November.
