    Default Just finished Penguin Quilt

    This is my latest quilt - I really enjoyed this pattern from Lisa Moore (you can google for her website). The backing was a stripe fabric - and I won't be choosing stripes for that any more. A lot of work to get it straight.

    Love it, love the free standing shadow-box effect, love penguins. I'll bet you did great on the backing also.

    I love the floating movement look. Great job. Thank you for sharing.

    I tried to add a picture of the back, but it took to long to load and my time was up for editing my post...

    Cool! They look like big ice cubes. I bought that fabric for OBW but I haven't started it yet. There is super cool quilt pattern in the new Apr/MayQuilt magazine that is 2 different maze blocks. I added it to my bucket list also. I wish these designers would slow down on their neat pattern production, I can only sew so fast!

    Great pattern. The penguins look like they are floating.
