BethDurand Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 I didn't think it looked all that bad when I checked it in. Guess I'll need to look a little more carefully. Colleen picked it up at an antique mall for $20. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethDurand Posted September 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 The safety pin marks where the seam has popped open and I'm supposed to catch it when I quilt it in the above photo. Here it is completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ffq-lar Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Great save, Beth! Your quilting is lovely--perfect feathers! It looks like a combo of 30's to 50's fabric and I love the bright colors. (And Bonnie--love the plaids and stripes in your DWR.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
