This is the first quilt I finished. It is a wallhanging for my best friend who just moved to Tennessee last summer. I had it quilted-by-credit-card at my LQS.

Woops, don't know what I did wrong. Will try again.

That is one awesome job that you did. I just love everything about it. Did you start with a panel of some kind?


Debbie

WOW.. great job!

Debbie, Yes, it was a panel with the 15 printed blocks. If you're interested, I may remember where I purchased it on-line.

Dawn, thanks.

I would be very interested. I just love those. I used to live out your way in Bakersfield. LOL It was so good to get away from the heat!

Debbie

Wow! That's gorgeous! Your friend is going to be so thrilled! Make more!

Beautiful!!!!!! Both the quilt and the quilting.

I am so jealous :D

Very nice!!!

zyxquilts, the quilting was done by The Quilted Quail here in Ridgecrest, CA.

Love the quilting, really neat job. For a first quilt you made a great job well done.

Are the printed blocks appliqued on top? Would love to know where you purchased the panel.

roseville rose - the printed blocks come on a panel. You just fussy cut them out and sew them together just like any pieced block. When I get home tonight I will try to get the manufacturer and fabric line and will post tomorrow.

I will also look up the pattern. It was in a magazine about 2 years ago.

Very very nice!!!

That is really pretty! I love that pattern and would have never thought of it! Great job! I'm looking forward to what else you can post about it. Thanks!

That's one pretty wall hanging, nice work and wonderful quilting.

Thanks--you did an awesome job!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh you are going to have to write the directions for this....
This could be used for any panel, if you used one, or any large prints....
Great idea...
Great Results!!!!
Thanks,
Kirsten

Beautiful job. Did you use a stencil for the quilting?

Wow that's a beauty! Also love your flip flop quilt pic on the side...that's the one I'm working on for my DGD.

stunning ....your friend will love it..

Very pretty! I think it looks great.

Stunning I been eyeing this one... you sure did a nice job....

Wow. I really like that. Did you design the pattern with the fabric in mind? Lucky friend!

WOW! That's pretty! Your quilting is fantastic!!

your top pattern looks as if it had the panel in mind when designed. Its is so pretty, yor friend will be very proud with it on her wall.......

WOW!!! You have a very lucky friend! That is just gorgeous. What an awesome way to use a panel. Thanks so much for sharing!

Very nice. Is it a keeper or a gift?

What a fantastic quilt!! You did a great job on your first one! And the quilting is magnificent.

Found the pattern last night. :D My LQS printed it out for me from a magazine on-line. Don't know what magazine they got it from.

The pattern is "Christmas Constellation" by Susan Winget for Benartex. The fabric collection is called Christmas Treasures and I just checked and Benartex is still carrying this line.

If you want the pattern PM me with your address. If I have too many requests, I may ask you to send me a self-addressed stamped envelope.

It is a very easy pattern to do (as I am still basically a beginner).

My LQS did the quilting. They have a minimum of $35 so that is what I paid for this. Don't know if that is the going rate as we seem to pay more in this town than anywhere else. (Gas is still $2.39)

That is so beautiful.

I love it!!!
