It's Twins!

I had a stack of Riley Blake fat quarters that were calling to me this past week and a couple of new battings I wanted to compare.  These quilts will go to Quilts for Kids.
Fraternal, but not identical.
Isn't it interesting to note how the brown sets off the center and makes the binding look sharp whereas the blue border and binding just fades away?
Since I was using the same backing, I put both quilts on at the same time.  That way, I could do both of them in just a little over the time it would take to do only one.
Had I been using the same batting it would have been even simpler to do.  I know you are thinking there is not enough batting at the end; but, it's just the angle of the photo.  Although, on something this small, I only cut "just enough."

Freehand swirls.  This is my "go to" quilting when I need fast, easy, dense and done.
 Besides I love the look.
