    Default Finished Quilt

    So I've finally finished the quilt.for my sister. Relatively pleased with it - there is one section of flying geese that I am not particularly pleased with as they somehow managed to gain some fabric fullness when quilting the borders around them. Hoping this will shrink a bit when washed.

    Otherwise I think it turned out well considering it is the biggest project I have self designed and uses only scraps. The quilting on the pin wheels looks good but continually turning it through my DSM was not fun!. I wasn't brave enough to do the straight lines as FMQ!

    The colour of the backing is a nice pink colour as well but the camera would not pick it up.

    Thanks everyone. Looking forward to going back to some smaller projects again now. I get bored with the quilting of bigger projects especially....
