Do you remember Lula May?
The scraps leftover from Lula May became Signal Sam.

Signal Sam is my response to the December Challenge which states "December brings another month to embark on your own project, regardless of its size, theme, or technique! Seize this chance to unleash your creativity without constraints. Enjoy the process!"

There is something very satisfying about taking the scraps from a completed quilt and making a brand new one. I definitely enjoyed the process.
Bold and Beautiful |
Signal Sam uses the Island Batik collection Celebrate, designed by Kathy Engle. The background is Solid Black.
The batting is Hobbs Cotton. I used Schmetz Microtex 80/12 Needle for both piecing and quilting.
I used my walking foot to quilt squiggly lines 2" apart. The binding is a scrappy mix of Sunset, Lemongrass and Bumblebee from Island Batik Basics.
Scrappy Binding |
Signal sam finished at 40" square and I am loving the bold, modern and minimalist vibe. What do you think? Isn't he handsome?
