Some Spring Things


I've had this fabric stashed away for quite awhile just waiting for the right project to use it in. Then one day when looking through utube quilting videos, I came across  Eleanor Burns demonstrating using her templates to make the Honey Cone Quilt. So I purchased the pattern which came with two templates, I watched the video again and read the instructions...or looked at the pictures and followed them.
It is as easy to sew up as her video and pattern instructions show. I will be using this pattern over and over again.
 
To this...I wasn't sure which colour to use for the binding, so I cut up different lengths of all the colours and sewed them into a binding strip. I think it looks perfect.
