these will go to charity. i used the embroidery feature on my machine for some of the quilting. the rest is simple straight-line on diagonals and/or in-the-ditch.
each is approximately 5' square.
i guess i should've pressed them for the pics but you know me ... i was too lazy and impatient. :lol:

Beautiful job Patrice, I love the embroidery as quilting. I just knew you'd get to quilting some of those fantastic tops you turn out one day :mrgreen: ! Well done, must feel good! And what a sweetie to give them to charity. :D

i "cheat" by making oversized blocks. the tops go together much faster that way.
the orange & blue is made from only four Interwoven Puzzle blocks. Connie Hadba picked it for us back in Feb or Mar 2008.
by making the patches 4" x 4", one block comes out 32" square. ;-)

Beautiful quilts, Patrice, and I really like the embroidery as quilting. Hmm-another new idea to try. Thanks for posting the pattern for the over-sized block; this will help with a couple of gifts I have to make. Thanks for sharing your pictures and for everything else you do to make this board a success (esp for rapping my fingers when I get on one of my soapboxes!) Your quilts are beautiful.
