Beautiful job! Is there anything you can't do? It's funny that you picked almost the same fabrics that are in the quilt I made a few years ago. You'll have to check it out next time you're here.
So gorgeous. I suck at quilting. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!
Beautiful. I can't quite bend my brain around pics #6 and 7 and how they fit in, though; they have dark outlines that aren't in the others. Was it two quilts?
Alison,
it's only one quilt.
Pictures 6 and 7 (the ones where Amy is holding the quilt top up to the window)show the completed quilt top.
The ones before that, we are putting the 9 patches on the bed to see which configuration we like better; also that is the point where you decide what fabric looks good for the borders.
Pics 6&7 have the borders on.
HTH!!
Karin,
It was so great to see you and your quilt that day! I've got the yellow room all set up so you'll have to bring your spinning wheel by soon :-)
