Rainbow Bars of (All) Sorts


Using up leftovers from this quilt and I think this was one of my favourite finishes of 2024!

I love licorice All Sort lollies and the longer Rainbow Bars.

My workmate Andrea Russell admired this one when I first shared a finished photo earlier in the year, so found herself the recipient of it as a Christmas/thanks-for-all-you-do gift.

Simple straight line quilting for this one, using my Bernina Q20 longarm and a ruler.

When working out a way to use up the strips in an effective and efficient manner, I decided on the graduated sizes and am really pleased with how it turned out.


Finished size is 51.5" x 54/5"

These colours, and the licorice black of the sashing, totally calls for a striped binding, and I used an orange batik from my stash for the backing.



Rainbow Bars - I think yellow is my favourite, but then again...they are all yummy!
