Welcome! I love how you added the flamingo fabric and a unique sashing to this quilt. It is wonderful!

You worked out a wonderful way to get your quilt finished and looking vibrant! Congrats on the win at the library! Pink flamingos are a favorite of mine, too, but they aren’t in the house. A friend and I used to joke that every house in Florida needed a pink flamingo in the yard. You have them in the house...I’m glad you enjoy them and they bring you good luck. Enjoy making quilts and welcome to the Board as a contributor.

Love the way it turned out. I, too, was uninspired by the final project, and my pieces still linger in the dark, growing older and older. LOL

WOW Ivy...love that quilt and the colors. I have to admit I am a lurker too and love to read this board almost everyday that I have time. Sometimes I don't know what to comment on, even though I love every different post, from the pictures, recipes, little sales, trades, and even the vintage machine pictures. I go back and forth from quilting to beadweaving. Right now I am back into quilting and have been doing this for over 15 years and sewing for 47 years. Glad you posted a picture of your quilt and soon I will post some of mine. Thanks...
