Yep, another one bites the dust.
This time, with a slightly softer yellow binding.
And a lively backing fabric called Silent Cinema by Jenean Morrison for FreeSpirit fabrics. Centering this puppy on the back proved to be a bit of a chore, surprisingly so. I ended up choosing my 'center' and ironing the fabric into quadrants taking care to split each of the tiny little flowers that that run the warp and weft into halves. Then I carefully pinned it to registration marks I made on my batting that corresponded with the center marks on all four sides of the quilt. Phew! Avoidance of this task might be why I use non-directional prints and solids so much in my quilting. Do you have any tricks for centering backing fabric? I'd love to hear...
Go make something!

GORGEOUS!!
I just finished a yellow and grey herringbone, inspired by you. I'm going to use teal for the binding. It is so fun to see what you are coming up with.
Love it, as usual.
Gorgeous!
yep that centring wasnt making life easy was it....another great piece..love it
Perfectly beautiful! The backing turned out great even it was a pain.
I just LOVE LOVE LOVE this quilt. You did wonderful job, and the colors are so perfect. Thanks for sharing!
Beautifully done! I love the backing almost as much as the front.
stunning!
I love your quilts!!! They are simple, but the result is always sooo nice!!! This new quilt has very nice fabric on the back side :)
Have a nice time, Jolana
I know i'm working backwards through your posts, but wow, you do churn the quilts out and they're all gorgeous!
I have centering marks on my work table. I tape toothpicks to those marks when I'm ready to pin baste a quilt. I can feel the toothpicks through all the layers which helps me keep them aligned.
I love the scale of your herringbone! How big are your HST blocks?

Hi there!
Wondering if you would share your pattern, or if you sell it? I'm hoping to make something like this for my little one. Thanks!
Hi! I just love this quilt and I would like to make a similar one for upcoming baby. What dimensions is the quilt and each block, and what kind of yardage is required? Thanks! My email is krista@twothirdsrobot.com
My new daughter in law loves this quilt so I'm hoping you could send me yardage, dimensions and size of your half square blocks. Finally I can make their wedding quilt! E: jglrany@bigpond.com
Sorry Jane L again. My correct email actually is jgleahy@bigpond.com many thanks from Australia.
My daughter-in-law loves this pattern and would like me to make a baby quilt for their first child due in February. Please tell me the dimensions overall of the quilt and the size of the triangles (or squares) you used. Thanks so much, been searching for a pattern and have not been successful. Hate to "wing it" without some basic info!
