    Default My Baltimore is ready for quilting....finally

    I started the BOM with everyone and even though I changed it around a bit, I am very happy with our group and the quilt. It rocked. I used my own tye-dyed fabric and it was raw edged applique and I love it. Sorry the pictures are sideways.

    Beautiful quilt. I've always wanted to do a Baltimore album quilt. I have only made a couple of blocks that went into another quilt. Love the tie dye

    Thank you, I had always wanted to do one too, and it wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be. Definitely used raw edge and wonderunder to do it.

    It turned out great! Loved seeing it's progress throughout the journey. The next one I am going to do with heat n bond lite. I got side tracked with this one so will start over and redo mine.

    Thank you. The hardest part for me is picking out fabrics for a project, so all I had to worry about is to fussy cut the colors I wanted out of my fabric. Bonni, I would love to see what you do with yours. I did use regular heat and bond and there is a whole lot of thread in this, but I used different varigated threads for the stitches on the applique

    Outstanding, my first love is Baltimore Quiilts. Your choice of colors is very interesting, some times it pays to step out of the box.
