    Default Hand marbled rainbow skirt

    This is my first finished quilt work, and I'm so excited! I marbled all the fabric myself on pieces of an old bedsheet, tore it into strips and pieced it together to fit the skirt pattern pieces I'd made. I quilted it with just stitch in the ditch and no batting, just more of the same cotton fabric (though not marbled) as backing.

    The marbling turned out fantastic! It might be your first finished quilt work, but it looks like you've had some practice at the fabric dying. Really nice!
