Good evening everyone! Hope you had a great day! It ended up being a crazy day for me, so I only got 2 quilts finished. The first one is a gem of a quilt that Lisa made. Lisa is a super piecer. All of those little pieces inside those stars. Crazy! This is going to be a wall hanging so I decided I wanted to try and make those star blocks pop up off the quilt. I ended up just top stitching them and letting the pieceing speak for itself. If you see it in person, you understand what I was trying to do. I used the sweetest bows in the outer border, feathers, hearts and a rose in the middle. Lots of stitch in the ditch around that teeny tiny red border. 2 layers of cotton batting and neutral thread. Lisa - I can't say enough about your piecing.... super job.
The second one is by Diane. Diane and Lisa are two of the luckiest people I know because they both work at Keepsake Cottage in Bothell. On Diane's quilt we used a design allover called Shari with a light lime green thread and cotton batting. I love the jelly bean flowers - they look so sweet with this quilt. Diane is also an amazing piecer. I guess it's fitting since they both work at a quilt shop. Nice work ladies - hope you like the way they turned out.
I'm loading Mo's quilt in the morning and I have a super fun surprise that I'm going to quilt on it. I can't wait to get it posted. Until the next post.....
Richla - my quilt is beautiful! I can't wait to see it up close! Diane's quilt is gorgeous, too!
