Lookie what I finished today! It still needs a binding (edge), but almost all of the work on this one is done!!!
I think I’m naming it “Outside the Box,” because I was pretty much going to follow the pattern instructions and lay it out so that the thin strips were in lines on the quilt. Then a few non-quilting friends came over and started playing with the blocks on the design wall, forcing me to think outside that pattern. I *loved* what they came up with so much more, and changed the position of only a few of their blocks before I sewed it all together. It’s quilted in an all-over feather design, using free-motion quilting and all cotton threads.
This one took me about 2 years, but it was dormant for at least a year of that.
The cat in the picture is Emily. She’s tremendously bored by all of this.
We need to either adjust your site’s theme or convince you to post smaller pictures.
I was in a hurry. 🙂
A wee bit excited, mayhaps?
Just a smidgen.
Looks beautiful!!! I love the colours and the “boxes”. I also really like the cat stretching out 🙂
So, truthfully, Emily caught my eye first. Animals yawning really tickle me.
BUT I LOVE THAT QUILT! What fun colors and patterns!!
