Except for a label, Tipsy Lampshades is done. Since it’s a lap quilt I don’t plan to bother with a hanging sleeve. I finally decided on a green fabric for the binding, and made the top and bottom binding wider than that on the sides. Why? I was trying to elongate the look of the piece.
The quilting puckered up nicely when I washed it.
And I’m pleased to say the inexpensive backing material (the quality is good but the print isn’t for everyone) gives a different look to the reverse side. It certainly isn’t a dainty print. But the African wax prints I used for the blocks aren’t shrinking violets either.
I’d have to say this one leans more towards tipsy than wonky.
