As I read along on your post, I started to laugh because I just finished a mini where I tried Susie's Magic Binding! I haven't posted about it yet, but plan to soon. It was fun to try something new and I do like how it looks for finishing off the quilt!

And the quilting, I could go on and on. I love how you made that background flow. Ignoring those sashings was 100% the way to go. I love how those L's pull your eye toward the swoons and swirls. Every thing is just spot on. I literally squealed when I saw the green and navy binding. It frames it perfectly and demands attention. I feel like I'm trying to convert everyone over to the Susie's way of binding :) It's like a little cult, but a fun one and we will not drink "the cool aid"...just wine. And Miss Bella, she almost looks like she's in slave driver mode. "You WILL finish, my human! And rub my belly" She was determined to over see the finish of this quilt.Tish Stemplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02570537698525430053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-58593275237386339202016-03-01T07:35:04.876-05:002016-03-01T07:35:04.876-05:00Beautiful Job, I just love how the layout makes th...Beautiful Job, I just love how the layout makes the colors pop!
