As a warm-natured Floridian, I’m often asking “Is it hot in here, or is it just me?” The hot colors of this quilt made me think of that, so I used my frequent question as the title.
This quilt is larger than most of mine, 54 high x 49 wide. So large, in fact, I thought it might one day get used for snuggle purposes. With that in mind, I put a binding on it. (For the first time in about 14 years!) Of course, I still consider it an art quilt and I added a sleeve for hanging.
Here’s a detail shot.
This quilt was a lot of fun to make! You can see my in-progess posts in the related links, below.

This is gorgeous!
When you use a commercial print, do you apply some sort of fixative or UV protectant when it’s finished?
Thanks, Kara! Yes, I always use a UV protectant. Most recently I’ve used Moab’s Desert UV varnish, which is expensive, and a UV protectant I got from Jo-Ann’s. It’s much less expensive and I think the brand is Fiber Shield or something like that.
Thanks, Ellen!
