EHonour Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 Still working on the binding handwork, but I thought I'd post these completion pictures. This quilt was pieced by my wife Beth over a year ago for our son, who is a music professor and music composer. All the fabrics have music motifs, and she arranged them in a bold black-and-white log cabin style. My challenge was to tie it all together with quilting while enhancing the music motif. So: piano keys around the border, music notes in the big circles, and treble/bass clefs all over the place. It was fun to work out how to quilt these patterns as efficiently as possible, but there were still a LOT of stops and starts. I also challenged myself to knot and hide all the ends this time.

LibbyG Posted January 5, 2017 Report Share Posted January 5, 2017 I love the circles with the treble/bass clefs inside. That was very creative. I can see you have a talent for design. Your son will love this gift from both of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
