purple color wheel mini quilt

Not long after posting about the mini color wheel quilt top I started for September's LMP+QG challenge (which I opted to create using only shades of purple), I managed to quilt it, bind it and mail it to one of my good friends (who loves the color purple) for her October birthday.


I opted to hand quilt the piece, using purple floss in the wedges and white floss in the inner and outer borders.


For the backing, I chose a Japanese print I've had in my stash for years.



And for the binding, I used an Anna Maria Horner print, which was leftover from this quilt that I made in 2011.


I was smitten with the finished wall hanging (I love the look of monochromatic scraps!), and so happy to gift it to a good friend.
