2 Dollar "fake quilt"

Thanks again to my favorite store- Goodwill wearhouse! There I found this quilt top pre-sewn, and purchased it for about $1.50. Since I wasn't up for actual quilting (time...effort....things I just don't have right now) I purchased a blue sheet. Then I just sewed them together as a throw! 




Sewing...once again....not my strong suit! 


Dad walked in while I was working on it...thanks dad (this is what I look like when I get back from work. Utterly exhausted) 

But trying to fake not being tired 

Remember the photoshoot fr0m yesterday? Well you guessed it, that was the first day I used it!

For the sheet, I really just took the sheet, folded over the edges and sewed them. I'm not saying it was a great idea, but it was fast, and I got exactly what I wanted! 

Juno loved it too :)

This is so cute. Do you plan to tie it or are the layers staying together? I was also wondering if you used anything for batting or did you just put the sheet right on the back of the quilt top? I absolutely love your binding. Such a cool short cut to boarders. I just may try that with one of my quilts someday.

Very cute.

If you haven't tied it, I would really recommend putting a few ties in before you wash it.
