Fresh from the dryer and now listed in my etsy shop!
This was, hands down, the best job I've ever done free motion quilting. I basted the heck out of this! I usually try for every 6", but this time I did every 4". My hubby even sat on the floor at 11pm with me to help me baste because I was so tired and had a long way to go! Isn't he sweet?!?!? Extra basting may stink, but I did not have a single pucker on the back. *Squeal!* As much as I hate to do it, I will be basting all my quilts like this from now on.
Stats: 1 Neptune Jelly Roll, lots of Kona Medium Gray, 3 yards of various Atlantis prints, 5/8 yard of S.S. Pink for binding
Love it and hope that I can be the one to buy it!!!!

ReplyDeleteWow, that is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThis is really gorgeous Kelly! I'm very impressed with how you kept the strips so straight. I have the hardest time with that, although I've noticed they cooperate better when I press them first.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful -- my favorite of all your lovely quilts. My law degree is also happily collecting dust. Looking forward to meeting you in March!
