quiltlover03 Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 It took me a few years to get the nerve up to make this Quilt, had 2 kits actually. One Quilt I made last year and quilted it with Come Dance with Me panto and it turned out just lovely. This last one I saved for something a bit more involved and I am tickled pink as to how my setting triangles turned out. Hope you like [/img] [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiltlover03 Posted August 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Thank you all so much for your wonderful comments. You are such an inspiration and give me that little push to go a bit further, do a bit more, try something that I think I can't do yet, and voila....if you don't try, how do you know, how do you improve, how do you get better???? So thanks again. I did learn a lot from quilting this Quilt. Make sure your wrists are strong or wear supports, take frequent breaks, make sure you have ENOUGH Thread of the main color ( I had to finish 2 borders with a slightly lighter shade), use rulers if you know how and have them for the bigger CC's....but apart from all that? I wish I had used QD Wool batting for more definition. I thought that QD Cotton Deluxe would be enough...I will know better next time. All in all it turned out just fine, don't know if I will list it for sale or pass it to one of my daughters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiltlover03 Posted August 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Well Linda, perhaps we can do a playday sometime this fall when things get quieter. I can be in Cooks Creek in about 1o hours, spend the night, have a day quilting, learning, have fun, spend another night and go home next day.....would that be something you'd consider? See if Sharon would like to come too???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

o2b Quilting Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Holy Smokes!! Absolutely lovely. You are inspirational. My vote is to pass it on to a family member that will cherish it, but if you sell it, make sure you get what it is worth!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
