Quilt close-ups 💕
This Faefolk quilt in Everlush fabrics is full of details I love. I quilted feathers, flowers, and pebbles all over, finished the binding with chunky hand stitches, and added one of my quilt labels from Meander + Make to complete it. 🧵✨ https://southerncharmquilts.com/faefolk/

Help me choose! 💬
I’m finishing up my Faefolk quilt in Everlush and it’s time for chunky binding stitches with DMC #8 thread. I’ve pulled three different colors for the binding… which one would you pick?

Slow stitches, soft light, and a quilt keeping me warm while I finish the very last binding. Pure peace. ✨🧵

Thought my wool mat was a goner after I scorched it… but hydrogen peroxide + a towel + a hot iron lifted the burn mark right out. Quilting miracle!

I don’t usually make pouches, but I had the urge to try something different. Quilted a simple grid on Wild Bloom Drama and stitched it up into these little quilted pouches. And honestly… I’m kind of obsessed. 💕 https://meanderandmake.com/fabric/collections/midsummery/

PSA to my fellow quilters: don’t leave your hot iron sitting on your wool mat while teaching. Ask me how I know… 🫠 What’s the worst sewing mishap you’ve ever had?
