So I have never done this before.
I am entering my completed Checkerboard Quilt
that I made as a gift for a cousin in Poland earlier this year in the
I used 32 black and 32 white ten inch pre-cut squares.
It is backed with a wide white flannelette with a simple red binding all done by machine.
Totally original.
Totally simple.
Totally completed.
The machine quilting uses a black and white variegated thread left over from some other project.
I did simple wavy lines going through each intersection
to keep it somewhat even.
