Primitive1 802 Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 Well I have been pretty busy lately with family going in every direction, my youngest dtr just bought her own first home and we have been busy moving in, babysitting grand babies, etc...and everything it seems but quilting.... But I did finally manage to get this one finished...it was pretty big I think 104 x 96, custom with piano keys borders, weave feathers in the smaller borders and 63 feathered wreaths in each block, oh yes and I don't know how many CC's in the smaller triangles. Used Superior thread in the top, fil-tec for the bobbin and wool batting... Quilt #226 by SewmanyquiltsSewlittletime, on Flickr Quilt #226 Detail of block by SewmanyquiltsSewlittletime, on Flickr Quilt #226 Detail of border by SewmanyquiltsSewlittletime, on Flickr Thanks for looking, always nice to share a finished quilt!!!
