Coffin quilt

The last few weeks I've made myself sit & sew my coffin quilt & i put the last shape on last night. Now to decide whether or not to fill in the spaces on the top, bottom & sides with EPP or just applique straight onto border fabric.
It fits nicely on my queen bed & comes already prepared with obligatory quilty cat. 🤣🤣.

There is 1495 coffin shapes in the top & i've tried not to double up any pieces. There are ones that have same pattern but different colours.
Time for a new project I think. Well at least catch up on this months Christmas BOM's before October's arrive or even this months medallions. 😊😊.

Happy Stitching,

  4. That's an amazing effort... so much work in it and especially with making sure you only use the same fabric once...

  9. Golly. This a project of perseverance and devotion! How great that you've kept piecing enough to make a queen-sized quilt. That's quite impressive. I guess we can deduce that you like handwork! :-)
