LinneaMarie Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Check it out girls:P:P I know it's not perfect or very custom; but I did do stars and loops in the borders. I'm almost ashamed to send it after all the really great stuff I see on here. I promise to PPP and get lots better!!:P:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LinneaMarie Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 And here is one I did for my mom who does not like "a lot of little pieces cut up" I tries to put water in the middle and swirls around the border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary Beth Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Linnea, First of all.....never appologize!!! You did a great job of quilting both quilts. Second, you are using your Circle Lord to do "tricky" stuff, not just the norm. You rock!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawnlam Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Don't even think that they won't appreciate it Mine are still in the wobbly quilting stage but am glad that I am able to do something for them dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinneaMarie Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 And I used King Tut thread and it gave me no trouble, after I by passed most of the holes while threading the machine. Loosened the tension just a tad on top. The color is "Old Giza"; or if you are speaking of ME, "Old Geezer". hahahaha I have no idea what the bobbin thread was! It came as a sample with my Millie.

RitaR Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Linnea, your spirals, no matter how they were made, are just great.. Nothing to be almost ashamed of.. some of us are way ahead of others, some, like me, are way behind others.. we can all learn something new, and enjoy showing it to others.. So glad you did. Love both quilts, but the one for your mother is simply gorgeous. RitaR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hummingbird Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Linnea, your quilts look great. I recently bought the CL & one of the boards I got was Swirls. I've always just free handed. I really like where you used it for borders only. Thought about that the other day but saved it for later. So far I have just used mine as practice & for one QOV.

LinneaMarie Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Hi Joe Ann, You might want to post that pricing question as a separate topic. I sure hope Mary Beth will chime in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renae Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Linnea you did a great job on both quilts and NEVER apologize! I love what you did of the firt quilt by using 2 different designs and I love the water design and the CL swirls in the second. You are on your way girl so you just keep it up and keep posting those beautiful quilts. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
