A finish to share!

My Zipper quilt is finished this week!  I had to look back a ways on the blog to see when I started making these blocks, and it was all the way back in February of 2023.  I had seen these blocks on several blogs, and found the original design at Klein Meisje Quilts.  It was one of those "I just want to try a couple of these blocks" projects!


I ended up making 42 blocks for a small quilt, about 42 x 54.  The quilt top was completed back in July.  It was fun choosing pairs of fabrics - usually one print and one solid - for each block.  I only duplicated one print (and not on purpose!) - can you find it?


Now it is quilted and finished!  I used the serpentine stitch on my sewing machine and quilted down all the vertical seams.  I've used that stitch on many quilts, but this time my sewing machine really complained about it.  I was so happy to get the quilting finished - and now I think my Pfaff needs a spa visit!  


View from the back:


It's already been through the washer and dryer so it's soft and crinkly and cozy!


This will be a donation quilt sent to Cynthia's Many Hands, Many Hearts charity. 


And I had to try a quilt roll photo just for fun!

  1. It’s been fun watching your collection of zipper blocks grow each month. So satisfying to finish a RSC quilt!
