Shadow Box Quilt

Shadow Box Quilt
I saw these quilts on the blogs and always
wanted to make one. I would suggest you try your
hand at it.  I am not an experienced quilter,
but sure had fun making this one.
                                               
  Here  are my color choices. Picked up the pan
   for 5.00 dollars so I thought if I fudged this fabric
         it would not break the bank.
 I cut 2 1/2 strips of the beige, and the dark brown was 1 1/2 inch
    strips. Sew the dark brown strips to each 2 1/2 strip that
     serves has the actual frame of the shadow box. Sew those 
 onto the picture fabric and mitre the corners.

    Now, if you have any trouble, just go to
      you tube and watch all the videos on how to do it.
      It's Just That Easy!

 Like I said, don't look too closely at the quilt , there is
a lot of mistakes!  I need to take a course on binding!
    But I get so rushy rushy, and have to get done!
 Don't be intimidated by mitered corners.  They are easy!

Hope you are having a good week!
