Redwork Gatherings
Long, Long Way from Home!
Long, Long Way from Home… is a tribute to my time on the road away from home teaching quilting. The name of this quilt is a song title, this one from Foreigner, another song from my youth and still on my playlist today. The quilt measures 44”x 44”.
The Redwork panel in the line also makes a great backing because you do not have to piece anything…this quilt needs at least 52″x 52″ back for the Long Armer. A yard and a half is prefect! The panel is 58″ wide.
I had Jake quilt this quilt in a honeycomb pattern with red thread. Do you stitch a red & white quilt in red or light thread? Well… you will get to see some of the other quilts quilted in light thread. I will do a whole post on What color THREAD should I(or have my) quilt, quilted with? I think this is in a more important question than what pattern should I quilt…
How to use a small quilt if you don’t need a baby quilt?
This little quilt will make a nice wall hanging or a little baby quilt that could be loved and loved, the more you wash it the better it will look! I also think this size quilt is very functional for home decorating…
If you have that little boring corner like I do…you can just add something simple like a ladder or drying rack with a folded quilt…
Bring some color into the kitchen or dining room…look what this quilt does to this neutral space…
They also fit beautifully as an accent on a chair in the living room.
Or sometimes you just need quilts for the STACK IN the cupboard!
Well…I hope you enjoyed my post about Long, Long Way from Home…
