I have quilted the Citrus Quilt. It turned out beautifully!
I quilted it using the Dewdrops in the Garden design by Urban Elementz in yellow thread.
I used miscellaneous pieces of frankenbatting of Warm & Natural. Don't you just love it when you can use up those batting pieces? Warm & Natural has been my go-to batting choice for years. It lays so nice and flat. It crinkles when it is washed like an old-fashioned quilt would.
I backed it with a gently used striped sheet. It's really soft. These blocks were made by other people. I received them via the Block Swap Adventure. My request was a 12.5" block with orange or yellow or orange and yellow in the block. I'm surprised how they somewhat go together. I think the citrus fabric remnant I used for the border and sashing really brought everything together in a cheery way. I like how the blocks just float. I'll probably bind it with an orange remnant.
The quilt turned out fabulous! That striped backing is perfect for this quilt.
