Can it be? Another finish? Why yes ~ yes it is ~ one more finish for my Q3 list. This is my Good Night Irene quilt that I started back in February for Terry's quilt-along. I missed all the deadlines for prizes, but I think this quilt is a prize in itself! I love love it. :)
(I really need to find a more creative way to take photos of my finishes ~ this closet door just isn't getting it!)
Here's a closer look at the quilting ~
and a roll-up shot :)
I love the straight line quilting I went with ~ the grid pattern it makes on the sashing looks really interesting while not overpowering the blocks.
Size: Approx. 50" x 50"
Fabrics: Delighted by Quilted Fish for Riley Blake

Thread: Aurifil 50 wt

ReplyDeleteI agree with you, I like the quilting on the white, especially because some lines are close and some not, it's very effective yet also doesn't over power the colorful blocks :)

Hi. I had to stop by to see your GI quilt after you mentioned it on my blog, QuilterinMotion. I love your colors and the combinations really work together and still look scrappy somewhat. Your quilting is beautiful and I wish I could do something similar but I'm going to have to go simple with a quilt that's 100+x100+ inches. I'll be lucky to get it in the throat of my domestic machine!!
