I probably shouldn't be posting about this quite yet as I still need to add the final border. I'm just so excited about how far I've come though so here you go. You get two pictures because I could not decide which to post:
After I finish sewing the final border on tonight, it's off to my Mom's to finish the rest. She and I will pick out some backing fabric, get it machine quilted, bind it, then ship it off to the happy couple. It has been a fun and bumpy ride getting this thing sewn. I have enjoyed it for the most part and it has been especially nice to have my friend working with me and helping me all along the way. It helps it go faster and be funner when you have someone to work with. This quilt wouldn't win any ribbons at a fair, but I'm proud of it and I think my sister will like it.
Wow! It's beautiful! And all the work you've put into it is truly amazing. I'm excited to see it!! And even more excited to see you!!!
ReplyDeletep.s. I really like the sashing between the blocks. It sets them off nicely. Good job!
ReplyDeleteGreat work! Now you have to learn hand quilting.
ReplyDeleteIt is truly beautiful! I am impressed.
ReplyDeleteWhat a huge accomplishment! It looks great.
ReplyDeleteIt looks awesome! Great job Josie!! I wish I had you to quilt with!
ReplyDeleteI don't like it, I LOVE it! (as cheesy as that sounds) and Keegan was and still is way impressed with it and loves it too. He likes showing it off to his family and telling them it was handmade by my sister. Thanks again, Josie!
