TASTER: Delilah Quilt with Valerie Nesbitt
FREE Tasters (Quilting) • Educational, G, 06-Mar-2020
This small quilt has been designed to use 5" charm squares and a couple of fat 1/'4s to add contrast and zing.
You can add two simple borders on to that. Valerie suggests a standard double border. She also has you considering adding flat piping. This would give a contrast of colour without adding anything to the size of your quilt.
