    Default Finally finished Christmas UFO

    I took a class with a friend to make this from a jelly roll. I did't really like the quality of the first jelly roll, so I bought another one. It is a large quilt, 58x 72 and I did't think I would be able to quilt it myself, so it sat around for two years. Last week I just buckled down and got it done.

    came out great! My first dealings with a LA machine was a jelly roll similar to yours I just quilted squiggly lines over the seams, came out great. recipient thought it was fantastic.

    I like it. It has a kind of Bargello feel to it.

    It's beautiful! There are always times that we have to buckle down or something wouldn't be done. Glad you finished it!
