Onto another subject... Do you love it?!?! I DO!
I got Punkie's quilt top all pieced together this weekend. Finished it up last night. My husband, the engineer/general contractor squared it all up for me. Told me I didn't do half bad. LOL. Still needs borders which I will be ordering the fabric for today. I was on the fence as to which fabric I wanted to pull out of the quilt for the border. I think I'm going to do one of the brown fabrics. I'm drawn to those for some reason.
So, my very first quilt top is 95% finished. Are there mistakes? There sure are but I think that's where the phrase "Made with Love" comes from. Does my Punkie Girl love it? She sure does. She jumped up and down when I told her it was for her and told me it was beautiful. Do I love it? I sure do. Only took me a month to finish. LOL.Here's my favorite block:
Had to play with my embroidery stuff too!Enjoy your day!

Isn't it a good feeling to finish? I love that part..because I am a finisher. I have concluded there are different kinds of quilter/sewers. 1. collecters and gatherers 2. starters 4. dabblers
ReplyDelete5. finishers. I know some of each. Make sure you take a picture with the border on so we can see! Good job!
Kudos! I had no idea that Punkie's quilt was your first! It looks great/good job! I like your blog's new look! Did you desing it?

I do love it - the colors, the pattern, everything! Great job.
ReplyDeletePunkie's quilt is lovely. The colours are so pretty. Great job! What are your plans for quilting it?
ReplyDeleteYour Loser Monday posts are starting to look like mine - one liners. I call it avoidance.
I love Amelia's quilt, and I really love the colors. Your border will be a nice finish.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you love it too.
oh pms weekends happen, we just move on. love that pattern - i've been looking at it for a while now to make a quilt when i have the time. love the way yours turned out, i think the brown will look great - are you going to bind it in the brown too?
ReplyDeleteSomehow I missed this post! I love the top! I think brown will definitely compliment it so nicely and I always like a dark border. Great job embroidering...looks straight. :)
ReplyDeleteJen, I have a daisy pattern that would go perfect on that quilt top. I love the quilt. You did a great job.
