I entered it in the county fair and it won a blue ribbon. In it, I could see the progress and improvement between my first couple of blocks and the last one. I learned a lot. Please persevere.
I absolutely love applique quilts. I have saved several projects and patterns off the internet. I'm sure I'll go back and try applique again sometime in the future. Thanks for sharing and commiserating! Appreciate it! |
Thank you one and all! I will persevere and get this top finished one way or another.
I was looking at this web site last night. I love the way she's quilted her projects. Hmm. I'm wondering and thinking... http://erinrussek.typepad.com/one-pi.../01/index.html She has posted a BOM during 2010 and I believe she is starting a new one this month for 2011. Something more to save. Have you all looked at Bunnyhill's newest BOM? I'm thinking I might do that but with embroidery instead of applique. http://www.bunnyhilldesigns.com/dyna...ree%20Patterns To much fun to be had out there! Happy stitching everyone! Thanks again for all the encouragement! It is appreciated! |

Love it

Oh that is beautiful! And Hand dine...WOW! I really want to see this when it is finished...don't you dare put it away for another five years! LOL!
|
WOW! Beautiful work!
|
It's wonderful and love your bright cheerful colors. I am learning needle turn (slow process) with same quilt pattern so yours is most inspiring. You should be proud of this beautiful quilt.
|
It's beautiful. Sometimes after spending a long time with a project you need a little break. Maybe put it away for a month or so, mark a date on the calendar to take it back out to quilt.
