I think you did great on the quilting! I've looked at Leah Day's website but haven't tried any of her designs....Good job! :thumbup:

I really want to stress to you beginners (like me), I have no particular talent for this kind of thing, I'm not artistic, I'm not particularly imaginative, and I can't draw to save my soul. If I can do this, you can do it. Really, work up the nerve, and give it a try. It's easier than you think. Oh yes, be very forgiving of yourself, or you will hate it. Using variegated thread helps too.

R U serious???? Wow, that's a great first attempt!! You did a fab job on it!!! :D
|
Very nice! You know they say "practice makes perfect" looks like you been practicing. Perfect! Love the varigated thread ,will have to try on my next project.
|
Looks just like what the teacher was explaining in one of my classes. I think FMQ just takes practice.
|
You mentioned you didn't like the gloves. I had gotten my 1st pair from ?????(that sr. moment). Finaly wore them out. They were too warm. My next ones from Fons & Porter. Like them so much better. Hands not so warm & liter wt. As for the threads, keep a small pc. of batting near by and touch the gloves to that. I know that is a nuisance. I get so grrrrr.
|
I think you have done a brilliant job and I am surprised it is your first attempt. Lovely quilt too.
|
Keep up the good work.
|
Wow-what a great job! You are much braver than I am; my FMQ is still on a practice square. I really have to get up my nerve and just go for it. I really like how you did the different motifs in each block-makes the quilt more interesting.
I bought cheap gardening gloves on sale at Walmart ($2.00 I think) and they work really well for me. I didn't like the F&P-like you said, everything stuck to them. |
good job
