Sandra Darlington Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 What a wonderful scrappy quilt! The swirls look terrific on quilted on it. Are these the Circle Lord spirals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Sew Simple Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Now, that's my kind of quilt! Brights! My husband always asks for brights. What is this pattern? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonnie Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 I'm really not one who normally goes for a bright colored quilt, but this one is very pretty, and I do love the CL swirl on it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffq-lar Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 I am biting my tongue---but I must mention the humility block?????? Sorry....... Love love love the pattern and colors! And of course, the very nice quilting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witha'K'quilting Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 I like the 'humility' block. We call these 'Amish"blocks in my guild as only God is perfect...Certainly our quilts are not. Very nice job. Your quilting really adds to it! I like the bright fabrics. They are so fun!!

Blue Wren Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Linda, I was blinded by this quilt & I still am.... hate to admit it but I still can't see the humility block! A friend made this top & because she was too slow for the rest of her group they decided to "help" her finish it. When I got it I had to fix it as there were lots of places where the seams didn't meet up. It also had a few humps so I unpicked & flattened them out. It was my first quilt other than my own that I quilted so I wanted her to be happy & she was! Jenny :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Ahh! Jenny, no worries. I see where the black and Tan HST was swapped. Not a biggie, really. I love the colorful fabrics and quilting-- it is GORGEOUS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witha'K'quilting Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 I can see why your friend was happy. Not only is the quilt very nice, it is nice that her friends wanted to 'help', even if it was because they felt she was too slow. How sweet it is to be loved...and have friends!

gardenslug Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Love the quilt and the quilting. Now can you share the name of this pattern? I rarely use blacks - not because I don't like them, but because I have never had black fabric that did not change in appearance after multiple washings. Guess I will have to change my ways as I love what the black does for these bright colors. Maybe I should just try Retayne on the black fabric first. Hey, Bonnie , what do you know about Retyne and black fabric? Again, love the quilt, Lynn. And it even looks easy enough for me to assemble.

Blue Wren Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 No offence taken Linda! I was laughing because I couldn't see the mistake & I struggled even when Shana told me where to look! Now I look it stands out like....hmmm better not use that analogy on here! LOL Maybe I did see it unconsciously... it's a big quilt, why would I photograph the mistake? Thanks for the confidence booster everyone & I will find out the name of the quilt pattern from my friend when I see her. Jenny ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maree Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Wonderful job Jenny, I knew you could do it. Is the spiral the circle lord or a template. Are you happier now with your Lenni. My right hand side of the table is giving me trouble, but I am half way through a quilt so can't do much at the moment with it. I have actually had a week to do some of my own quilts which was great. Email you soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smorris Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Hi Jenny I loved that quilt before it was quilted. It looks even better now. Hope you get a long time off work over Christmas so you can do lots more. Congrats Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary Beth Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Jenny, My first thought when I viewed the first picture is 'this is going to be hard on the eye balls', then I noticed it was already quilted. I didn't see the "humility" block either, had to go back and really look and decided if I had to look that hard....it must be pretty well hidden. You did an excellent job. The quilt is awesome and your friend must be very proud. Plus, you helped boost her confidence but smoothing over the rough spots...great job!!
