    Default U.F.O. top done

    I posted a picture in a new thread in case no one read to the bottom of the yesterday's U.F.O. in progress thread. It came out nice but the bias edges were a bit tricky. The straight of grain sashing helped to control them some. I want to do black binding but may change my mind depending on my backing and what colour thread I quilt it with. Any suggestions?[ATTACH=CONFIG]561012[/ATTACH]

    Came out great tartan! I think the variegated would be wonderful if you are good at quilting and want it to show up. But, otherwise I would go with a black and use a black backing and batting too.

    Wonderful!! I would stay with black binding to keep the pop of the colored fabrics surrounded by it.
