Another Therapy Session

Since I finished Allietare (YAY!), I'm back to working on this HST quilt.



I got the top put together.





The pile on top of it is a chain of pieced squares I plan to use for the back as I did with this quilt. I'll cut them apart, press, make four patches out of them, and then join them for my backing.





 I don't think I'll border this quilt; it seems to be finished as is--just a binding should complete it well.

I'm linking with Fiber Tuesday 47 at The Quilting Room with Mel.

    Love your HST quilt! I myself seldom use borders for my quilts.

      Thanks, Christine. I like borders, but this one doesn't feel like it needs one.

    One of my favorite quilts is all HSTs. I have a photo of it taped above my cutting table. Yours looks beautiful and will be an awesome finish.

      Thanks! I've always wanted to try this layout--looks clean and crisp to me. :)

    I love scrappy quilts! The white provides enough calm space here to really set off your prints, I think. I would say this is going to be a beauty.

      Thanks, Julie. Almost everything I do is scrappy--I've tried quilts with fewer different fabrics, but I always feel they are lacking something.

    I love this! I really like that you grouped four of the same HST blocks together.

    Thanks, Katy. I think it helps with the organization for the eye--random, but not quite chaotic!
