    Default Quilt my own
    Hi after 8 months i finally have one new quilt to show. I quilted this using a twin needle around each square and on the borders, and fmq on the fern motif on the mustard squares.
    Still lots of room for improvements. but going well. this quilt had 1420 pieces in it, 1350 in the green and bone sashing. which gave it a lovely rippling effect all over the quilt. which i had hoped it would.
    A bit of a challange but I am super pleased with the effect.

    Thankyou very much, even though it took in all 3 weeks of work over 2 months, I would make it again. Janedb
