Flower Patch SAL final
Is your flimsy finished?
The Flower Patch SAL has reached it’s end and I slid in for a close finish, I did get it quilted if that counts for anything. It still needs a little squaring, a label and binding but I’m proud to present it to you,
Thank you all for sewing along and I hope you love your quilt as much as I love mine. Do you have plans for your quilt already?
Hobbs Batting
For piecing and quilting I used Aurifil Thread and Hobbs Tuscany Cotton Wool batting. I’ve used the cotton/wool blend one other time and love it. It is so light and even though it is a wool blend it is great for cuddling in the summer when the AC is running you out of the house. Their Tuscany 100% wool is amazing!
Fabric
All of the fabric for my quilt was supplied to me by Island Batik from their Foundations Collection. Not all shops carry each and every Foundation but they are available year around. You can use the Store Locator to find shops in your area. If they don’t have what you are looking for you can request it.
AccuQuilt
Even though this was a paper pieced quilt I did use my AccuQuilt GO! Big for cutting the strips binding.
The final linkup
To our four finalist: The link up will remain active until 11:59pm May 18th central time. Make sure you link up your flimsy, border attached prior to that cutoff. It can be quilted or not, as long as it has a border.

Thank you to AccuQuilt who provided a prize of a GO!Me. These are great little machines and light enough to carry along to guild meetings and retreats. You cannot use every die available in them so make sure you check machine requirement prior to purchasing dies.
