#rainbow thread

It’s done! This is my first quilt of my own that I hand quilted and I quite enjoyed it. I chose a variegated thread going in one big spiral and then I went back and did a stitch-in-the ditch to break it up along the eight sections. To save my elbow I only worked for an hour or so at a time but it only took 2-3 weeks of working. Time to wash out the last of the marking lines and then the recipient better be as excited about this one as I am.

See here for the post about the piecing and wonderful pattern.

it’s a sampler of these mini squares, i have a rainbow of thread and the aida is on top of my usual tote bag. i’ll tear away the aida threads after it’s done to have it embroidered directly on the bag.

And I made a decision to use my rainbow thread (Threadworx Bradley's Balloons)..

So the border patterns will be black but the tree will be rainbow... because the tree of life should be imo 😂
