Last months CHOOKSHED challenge is finished and has been delivered to its new home. I have loved doing this big stitch quilting. I can see more in the future.
I know why Linda . Koshka2quilts makes smaller quilts and hand quilts most of them. They are so manageable. Thanks Linda for the inspiration to give it a go.
It only measure 36” * 39” and used a lot of scraps.
The striped binding works so well.
I used chenille on the back for the first time. It was so soft and fluffy.
When it was washed it came out very different. Maybe needs a real windy day to fluff it up. A lot of the fluff came off and balled up on to the front blocks.
Anyway, here is the difference before washing and after.
Thanks Louise for the Kiwi pattern

Jo, I hope Mia loves the kiwi quilt. It was a joy to watch your progress making it. I’m glad my little kiwi pattern found a home in your sewing room. Cheers, Louise
Congratulations, Jo! I do like the looks of the big stitch quilting and the striped binding!
Beautiful finish Jo.
You've made a wonderful job with the pink kiwis. I've never used chenille as a backing before.
