📚Perfectly Pieced Quilt Backs📚

Kelly @ My Quilt Infatuation has a new book--Perfectly Pieced Quilt Backs, and it is brilliant!!! Kelly has changed my mind about pieced backs!!! 

Here are six backs I've made from the book, so far!!!

This book is filled to the brim with 30 different creative quilt back ideas, in three different sizes each! Plus, it contains a link for 18 quilt patterns for the front of your quilts! ⤵️

Now, for my six quilts and six quilt backs!!!

This is the front of my Katrina quilt: ⤵️

Here's the back! I used the pattern "Framed Orphan", for when you have one block left over. It worked perfect for me as I did indeed have that one odd block leftover!!!⤵️

This is the front of my Ariel quilt!⤵️

Here's the back!!! I used the pattern, "Every Little Bit", combining a strip of leftover quilt front pieces to create a strip down the back!⤵️

Here's my Chilhowie Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt!⤵️

Here's the back! ⤵️ I used the pattern, "Chunky". This was like doing giant improv sewing! I recommend pressing your fabric pieces and then starting with the largest piece. This is a great way to use fabrics that are a large print and would be lost by cutting them up into smaller pieces. Or for small bits and pieces of stash fabric!

Here's the front of my Strip Twist,⤵️ a recent QAL with Gudrun @ GE Designs:

And here's the back! ⤵️ I used the "Cool Columns" pattern, following this note, "This backing also looks great using rectangles with random lengths."

My National Parks panel quilt ⤵️

And the back, using the "Chunky" pattern again! ⤵️ This is such a great way to use up random pieces of stash!!!

My Bee Grateful, Turning Twenty Again quilt! ⤵️

And the back, ⤵️ using a combination of a strip of 4 extra quilt blocks from the front, and the "Chunky" pattern on either side! Clearly, the "Chunky" pattern is a favorite of mine!!! A great use for stalled stash!
