Flower Sugar quilt is officially now a flimsy. I think the piano key border took me as long as piecing the top. I'm very happy with how it turned out, not as much contrast as I hoped but it's the fabrics we love anyway.... right? The binding will be the same red as the inner border. I used the pattern from Schnibbles book and the quit is the bigger version of the bow tie quilt called Bennington and it's 63x63. I bought 15 FQ's and 1 yard of the red and I'm only left with scraps, pretty good for not having a plan when I purchased the fabric.
The fall maple leaf runner is pieced and I'm hoping to have that quilt soon.
Have a good weekend.

Oh Wendy, I LOVE it! It's just wonderful!
The piano key borders are deceiving looking when it comes to thinking how long it will take to piece. A very sweet looking quilt.
Great looking quilt.
Beautiful. It made me look at some fabric I have and the pattern again - I think I'm inspired!
That's one happy, gorgeous quilt!
What a darling quilt! What fabric line is that from?
Oh Wendy - it's beautiful. I'm glad you've been sewing more.
A piano key border is time consuming, but worth the effort. Your's is cheery and bright.
Wendy, your quilt is so gorgeous!

Seriously I love it. I also really like that it doesn't have a lot of contrast. It looks older and loved...already!! Nice job!!

That is gorgeous!! Love Flower Sugar and you really did it justice with your beautiful quilt☺
It turned out just lovely. The bright pink/red fabric just pops and keeps your eye moving to see all the fabrics.
Well I didn't have to wait long lol! I LOVE it--so pretty! I just made a piano key border for a little quilt and no kidding about time consuming, but so worth it!
What a lovely quilt, and I think the red binding will set it off wonderfully.
Okay, enough is enough!!! I gotta get me some Flower Sugar!! LOL
It looks fantastic Wendy and I think the red binding will frame it nicely. Congratulations on the finish!
