With so many projects in the works at the moment, I needed a "finish." So I pulled out my Dresden bullseye (only needing a binding, and untouched for the last 7 weeks) and began auditioning different binding choices. Thanks to everyone who offered up suggestions of colors to try!
Here's what I tried:
The matching orange
Navy
Light blue
A navy and orange stripe I had on hand
And I chose....orange!
I really like the sleek, modern-ish look that the same color binding creates.
I looked back, and
my original post on this quilt was January 31st. I had missed photographing it in snow by a day. It is now March 22. Perhaps the only benefit of it having snowed here on the first day of spring is that I finally did get a photo of this project in the snow!

Finish It Friday.
Wow, what a quilt. Love the black red white combo. Very striking colours. Love that circular quilting in the background, really sets off the dresden.
ReplyDeleteWhat a work of art! It is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI like the orange too, adding another color would have distracted from the awesome dresden design.
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt and the binding you chose is perfect. Don't you just love quilting in a circle. Your quilting is stunning!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great finish and the binding is perfect.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love it. The orange was the perfect choice!
