OMG Mary Ann! Your DH could be my DH's twin! Don't let the word out that guys like this are the cream of the crop! Oh yes ... your quilt is beautiful too!

What a fun thread to read. I just love those fabrics too! The pattern was so perfect for this quilt. Great job.

For a second quilt, it is lovely!!

Diana G. 03-25-2013 07:59 AM

VERY pretty! :)

I love the quilt and the colors. I use clear Elmer's school glue when I do my bindings. It washes right out and saves tons of time.

JoanneS 03-25-2013 11:52 AM

The colors of your quilt are very pieceful - not what you would usually expect from a quilt that is mainly yellow.Nice work!

mjhaess 03-25-2013 01:56 PM

Pretty quilt....I love the gray and yellow....

MimiBug123 03-25-2013 01:59 PM

I love your choice of fabric and the pattern, as well. They go together perfectly. Some young girl will be thrilled to receive this beauty!

caspharm 03-25-2013 02:39 PM

Nice quilt and nice helper!

callen 03-25-2013 02:44 PM

Love your quilt. So bright & cheery. Someone is definetly going to love that quilt.

aeble 03-25-2013 03:33 PM

Lovely quilt. I especially love your border quilting.

nannyrick 03-25-2013 04:23 PM

That is soooo pretty. Beautiful color choice. Craftsy does have a class for the walking foot for FMQ. I took it but to tell the truth, I found Leah Day's class more helpful. She has a couple of classes on Craftsy. Check them all out.

Jackie R 03-25-2013 04:52 PM

That is an absoloutely beautiful quilt - love the colors and fabrics. Lucky you - having an enabler DH.

fatsewcat 03-25-2013 05:29 PM

Beautiful!

DLM3 03-25-2013 09:18 PM

Can you tell me the name of the fabric line or the MFG of it? I just love it, you did a fantastic job.
Thanks. :)

beautiful colors & quilt

quilttiger 03-26-2013 03:08 AM

Your quilt is fabulous! Lucky you that your DH is an enbler! I have one, too, smile. Love him!

Jmahon69 03-26-2013 04:01 AM

What a lovely quilt! I absolutely love the fabric! It's a very happy piece of art.

BeckyBryan 03-26-2013 04:02 AM

MaryAnn - I love your quilt so much I purchased the pattern from Craftsy. One of the things I love about your quilt (besides the gorgeous fabrics and colors) is how the blocks seem to float on the yellow background. I was a tad bit disappointed when I looked at the pattern - it doesn't have that same feel to it. What a difference fabric choice makes! I had to zoom into your photos to see that one of your fat quarter yellows reads solid, which gives the illusion I was drawn to. Nicely done. When I chose my fabrics, I'll be sure to include on that reads solid. Thanks for sharing!

The man behind the quilt is smiling, looks cheerful, so how can we ignore him? Your top is wonderful - he looks proud to help out!

Dretha 03-26-2013 05:26 AM

Love the quilt. I also have an enabler or maybe I should say helper. He helps pick out fabric and encourages me to buy sewing machines. Love that man. I have used elmers glue and yes it works really great. So much eaiser to make corners match up. I dont let mine dry overnight if I still want to work on it. It seems to hold pretty good after about 30 minutes. I do however use the stick glue.

Scakes 03-26-2013 06:20 AM

Lovely quilt! Would also like to hear more about using the glue and how it works. Thanks for sharing.

amelia0607 03-26-2013 06:43 AM

As a youth worker, I assure you a teen will love this. I want to thank you and your enabler for doing this. It will make a diifference!!

sunnymom 03-26-2013 07:00 AM

DonnaC 03-26-2013 09:29 AM

Gosh, I love, love, love your fabric choices! And your quilting looks incredible! I don't think you need a class at all. :)
