Sweetie Pie Sew Along - Week Ten - The Big Finish!!


Hello again...
YaY!
It's week ten and time
 for the big finish:)


If you want to make my
 Sweetie Pie Quilt


Last week we left off here...
with all of the 
appliqué completed 
and the quilt center
  sewn together.


Now it's time for the pieced border:)
Cut pieces according to the pattern...


Draw a line onto
 your background squares...


or use my 
 if you don't want to
 take the time to mark them.


I always chain piece when
 I'm doing the same step
 on multiple pieces.


When all of your 
easy corner triangles
 are sewn...


it's time to 
trim them like this!!!


I press my seams open 
so that they 
lie nice and flat.


Sew them together according
 to the pattern 
and then sew them 
to your quilt...


like this!!!


The last step is to
 cut and prepare 
your outside borders...


and add them to your quilt:)



I super LOVE this quilt!!! 
Mine is all quilted 
and hanging in my 
family room right now:)


My friend Juli Stubbs quilted it for me and did an amazing job.


The following photos 
are several close ups 
of the quilting that I 
took for you to see:)










I hope these photos 
help you out when you
 are ready to quilt yours:)


Thank you so much 
from the bottom 
of my heart for sewing with me...


 and for celebrating 
the release of my 
Sew Cherry 2 fabric:)

  6. Love the the Farm Girl Vintage. Finished it and entered it in our local show. I did mine all in Red and White. The judge loved it so much she made it Judges Choice. It was so much fun to make.
