Hot & Bothered :)

I sewed a quick seam around the very edge of the last border before throwing the quilt into the washing machine to soften and age the raw edges. This enables you to maintain a neat edge for the tassled border.

You know your in love with the colours of a quilt when you can sit there and watch it evolve, spinning in the washing machine, and I'm grateful it survived the ultimate test for any form of sewing.....the dryer test - yes all seams held and in place and when you opened the dryer the most amazing quilt greeted you....check out those gorgeous fluffy edges!

And now for the tassled edge.....
