week-end inspiration, a bed headboard





This is part of my week-end work. I have done this bed head-board, it is to be put against the wall with a modern sommier, fitting very well in a broad range of styles, that will depend of the bedcover, of course. I will be selling this piece and others very soon in my Etsy shop. I have also made another one , as a complete bed, but it needs to be painting.
I hope you like

again with the mini quilt, step by step






Making the rows (5 photos above)







Marking and sewing the rows (4 photos above)



Bating the mini quilt with a light material two photos above(I divide a "normal bating" in two)
Tips:
Marking the seam with the help of the quilting rule, note that with this rule is easy to mark the same width in all the fabric squares.
All the seams must be opened, but you can do that just with your finger nail.
Line up very carefully the seams between each row. This is the most difficult part, at least for me.
