Let's start with the finish. Here is the
Awesome quilt I posted about a while back. I thought you would like to see it finished. I am so happy with this, the pattern and fabric, and it was so fun to quilt. Fast figure eights, and some good ole stippling. I still think there is a place for stippling, even though I love all the new inventive background fillers.
I love the fabric in this quilt, and it works so well with Jenny's pattern. A win win.
A view of the backside, lots of texture. I matched my top and bobbin threads, so you can see the purple on the back along with the white. Love that.
And, now the new. I am starting quilting on an applique quilt, and I am totally enjoying this one.

I have gotten a good start on this quilt, so hopefully there will be more pictures of it soon.
Enjoy your starts and finishes, and I appreciate you looking at mine.

I like the look of figure eights. I have been drawing them off and on. Going to try them one of these days. Great quilting!
ReplyDeleteOoohhh just love how your Urban Abacus quilt turned out! It's stunning! What a great applique' project - very nice quilting on it too!
ReplyDeleteOoo, they both look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteEsther- I love the quilt made with the quick curve ruler. I finally got mine so I hope to be making something this year :) I really like the quilting. Do you use a ruler for the piano keys?
