Sew & Tell Friday #5

So glad it is Friday.  Also glad I have at least one coin quilt finished.  This is the quilt top for Coin Quilt #1.  Still not sure which sister this will go to.

The rows really aren't crooked.  The railing post prevented the quilt from hanging straight.  This quilt was made with the Sorbet fabric.  I used a Moda solid for the sashing.  My daughter had suggested using a different color and was not happy when she came home from school and saw what I had done.  I explained that I was wanting to finish ONE of these without having to go out and buy more fabric.  (Why do I even feel the need to explain my fabric decisions to a 10 year old?!)

Again, I promise the rows are straighter than they appear.  This was all I could do with the fabric I have on hand.  Of the other two coin quilts, I know one will be fine with white sashing which is in inventory, but that's the quilt that needed more strips of fabric ordered.  The other quilt will require purchasing fabric for the sashing.  All three need fabric for binding and backing.  I did try and be good and look through my stash, but nothing looked right.  I will be shopping today.  First for a new laptop, and then on to my LQS for sashing, binding and backing fabric.
