There I was, saying I was back into blogging and it takes me over a month to write my next post. Oh well, I am true to my word in saying I am getting back into blogging, albeit if I am delayed doing so.
My quilt for triplet boys is finished and I call it The Power of Three. It's a big quilt and will be used as a play mat and as the background for baby photos.
As it's so big I found it difficult to photograph, so you will have to piece it together in your mind from the photos I've included to get a true feel for the quilt.
My favourite part of the quilt is the rainbow border, which was an unnecessary addition but which I think makes it more fun and frames the whole quilt. I opted for a black binding so as not to imbalance the rainbow effect and I think it makes the whole quilt dramatic.
The backing is some lovely fabric by Robert Kaufman but I am not certain of its name. It has astronauts, space shuttles, planets and stars on it and the bright colours and fun images are a happy backing.
More quilting posts coming up soon and this backing fabric will be making another appearance then.
