Moda Strawberry Lemonade Quilt
Here's my latest project using Moda's Strawberry Lemonade line. It's on hold for now because I need fabric for the border, backing and binding. I won't be able to make it out to the quilt shop until next weekend, so I'll have to find something else to work on in the meantime. I'm thinking that I will put a border around each square instead of sewing them all together. But that will depend on if I can find a fabric that I like for that. There isn't much a selection of this fabric line on Etsy or eBay anymore.
I happened to read Oh! Fransson's post about open seams shortly after I started the quilt and so decided to try it out. I love it! It really does make the pieces lie more flat and makes piecing more accurate. Although, I wouldn't say my pieces are accurate. I did a sloppy job of cutting the pieces out, so it's a bit messy.
I had some extra pieces, so I decided to make a matching doll quilt. Cute, eh?

Green border would unite the colors and be a complement to the red strawberries. Do you have more blue/strawberry fabris for the 6" border after the green frames?
I totally love it! It's so cute!
