First sari quilt

Finally finished my first sari quilt. My mom mostly wears only cotton saree's, I have to admit they are the best. In India we used to have quilts without any separate batting between the layers of cloth. Which is quite light and machine washable.

For this quilt I used 3 cotton sarees, which I just folded them and ironed them without any wrinkles. I first sewed them by hand around so they don't slide when sewing on machine. Then using my brother machine I used quilting foot and one of the patterns setting I just sewed them together. I used some leftover binding from previous project and sewed it around. It turned out pretty good.
