trip around the world quilt.

I have just completed a trip around the world quilt. Which I did with a couple of jelly rolls.
I ran out of white fabric part way through and had to unpick and redo 7 rows but I am really happy with the end result.
As I ran out of the white fabric I was using and decided to use another white fabric from my stash, when I laid it out the two whites were different shades. So I decided to unpick and redo.

you will notice the rows in the top are a slight difference in the white colours. I had to remove 7 rows in all and change the 6 1/2 inch white squares.


this one here really shows the difference.
I have just finished it and will upload some photos of it tomorrow. I am glad that I decided to redo these ones. I had made a alot of 9 patch blocks so I had enough to redo the 7 rows of 18 across. 
I am going to use the blocks i removed and make a single bed quilt from.
thanks
Wendy

  4. Hello there! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog
    platform are you using for this site? I'm getting sick and tired of Wordpress because I've
    had issues with hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
