Wonky Monster Quilt

I finished my Wonky Monster Quilt. It is now my favorite quilt but isn't our current quilt always our favorite? It ended up measuring 44.5" X 58.5". It's a nice lap size quilt or a child's size quilt.

Several years ago I purchased a couple of mini fat quarter packs full of fun and colorful monster fabrics. I used one fat quarter pack for the wonky log cabins on the front. I ordered some fun green fabric from Jo-Ann's for the sashing and borders. I wasn't sure if the green would be a good match but I love the way it all works together.

I did an all over wiggle jiggle free motion quilting design. I used a pale yellow thread for the quilting. This is the first time FMQing on my new Juki and I LOVED the whole process. It was so smooth especially since I used the extended table. I wasn't sure if I wanted to make any more large quilts but since I have the new machine I want to make all the quilts lol.

I used the second set of fat quarters for the back of the quilt. I used the green from the front to bring the back up to size. I like the back too.  I used Pellon cotton batting for the first time and it worked really well for this quilt. I love how crinkly it is straight out of the dryer.

I found a fun loop de loop quilting design among the many options for my Juki. I used it to machine stitch the binding down and I think it worked really well. So much easier than stitch in the ditch and trying to catch the binding on the back. Now onto the next quilt....
