Thank heavens I love to hand quilt, because this is really going to take a while!
I've quilted five blocks now, and I'm just about to start on the sixth :-) It's not easy to see in the picture, but you can get an idea of where I'm heading with the quilting pattern. There is a four petal flower in each block, and a circle surrounding each block in the sashing strips.
Marty will be away this weekend, so I'm hoping to entirely cocoon myself and get lots and lots of stitching done - it has been so cold lately that quilting is just the perfect activity to keep warm. Chatter soon! xox

ReplyDeleteThis quilt is just going to look amazing. I know what your hand quilting looks like :-) Wonder how all those seams are going to go!
Enjoy

ReplyDeleteYour quilt and quilting is really wonderful. I love the hand quilting you are doing - the circles look awesome.
ReplyDeleteIt's FABULOUS!!
ReplyDeleteI need to learn to hand quilt, you ate doing a fantastic job.
This is going to be amazing! Such an "insane" amount of work..but the results will be beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love it! And you will be done before I ever finish my big quilt I"m hand quilting. Although I did work on it quite a bit the last few months. Some YEAR it will be done!
ReplyDeletenothing like a good warm quilt top to be quilting on when the weather is chilly outside. Hope you get a lot done this weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe quilting is perfect for your quilt! I love to hand quilt too, but my stitches are much bigger than yours. It was lovely to meet you today. I love that I have a quilting shop just at the bottom of my street. I'm sure I'll see you again soon as I get back into quilting.
ReplyDeleteLooking good can't wait to see the finished quilt...thanks once again for the lovely day will be in touch soon xx
ReplyDeletePlease tell me how you marked your top for quilting. I have tried several ways but haven't found a favorite yet.
