    Default Patriotic tumbler wedding gift

    I've finally got my tumbler quilt pieced and ready to go on the frame. Really proud of this one. Designed it by myself and used nothing but my stash for it (except for one FQ of blue I had to buy). It's 84 x 65" - big enough for two to cuddle under. It's for my cousin, who was transferred to England last month with her Army Sargent fiance'. I wanted something to remind them of home. I love the Accuquilt tumbler dies! They made piecing this so easy. An architect works next door to our office, and was sweet enough to print out the applique picture on extra large paper. I also tried MistyFuse and absolutely love the stuff - it left my fabric SO soft and I didn't have to reverse the wording to cut it out. Once it's quilted and bound I'll post a finished picture
