maggienoella 250 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Here is a photo of a quilt I was supposed to quilt but, due to issues with the client which I don't want to talk about here, has been picked up and is on its way to another quilter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bonnie H 557 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Oh, it's pretty but it would have been tough to handle that fullness in the middle and the too small borders. I have one of my own piecing on the frame right now where the borders are a bit too big (and the quilt is ginormous) and I'm not having a fun time with it … and it's my own doing so no one to blame but me!

BethDurand 350 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Wow. I hope that you'll be able to track it down and get a photo of "after" to see how it turned out. I hope the next quilter has got a really good magic wand. They are going to need it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LisaC 569 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 The one that "got" away or the one you "gave" away? Yes, good call; and what a blessing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dbams 401 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 There certainly is a lot of "texture" in that top. Yikes! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micajah 152 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Wow, it's a very pretty quilt, but those borders! Did she run out of fabric before she got to them? If she did, she could have just cut the center quilt down a little bit and reapplied the borders. It's a shame to leave it like that. It's new address will be 100 Wrinkle Ave,Tuck City for sure. dlnewell, RitaR, ffq-lar and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
