So....I finished a quilt today.....
« on: March 26, 2008, 04:29:01 PM »
Well I didn't totally finish it, I still have the binding and label to do.  I did all the quilting this afternoon.   :hyper:  I must confess, there was a thread started over at CU about quilts and I posted the pictures there as well.   This is for my step-dad's sisters birthday.


I think because I had the door open it screwed up the coloring of this picture.



The next three pictures are more true to color.

I thought you said "I finished a Guilt today."

I was looking to see who you were quoting from the DUmp.

Lovely work BTW.

The pattern of the quilt top (the fabric) or the quilting pattern (as in the stitching)?

That's a very nice piece of handiwork, BEG.  I love things that people create with their own hands.

Did you have any help doing it?  You know what they've been saying about quilters an' all.  :o

Just sayin'.

Darlin', it's a lovely quilt.  But for a million bucks, it better come with you on it.


Wasn't that a movie with Robert Redford...?
