This week I finished the quilting and binding on the second quilt from last year's Stash Buster Challenge. The original quilt was so big that I wasn't comfortable quilting it. I intended to send it out to charity as a flimsy but the postage was so much. I ended up taking it apart and making 2 quilts instead. The first (larger) quilt was gifted to friends. This quilt will be sent to charity as part of the Hands2Help 2023 campaign hosted by Sarah @Confessions of a Fabric Addict.
I changed the layout to a 4 x 5 grid and quilted vertically in straight lines about 1" apart.
I used a piece from my stash for the backing and a coordinating piece for the binding.
I'm calling this quilt Play Nice!
