I've told several people about working on this EB quilt, having started it last summer and getting close to finishing it this. At this rate, I'm hoping to have the thing done by maybe ....... the first of never :lol:
Actually, my mother has laid claim to it, so I have to get it done soon. She's been dropping her subtle hints lately (i.e., when you finish my quilt, I'm going to put it right on my bed). Of course, she claimed it by saying, "you remember that flower quilt you were working on? Well, you can give that to me for my birthday. That's my mom. What can I say? So anyhoooo, here are the pictures. I only have 13 of of 20 done (I'm redoing the crocus, since I didn't like how they turned out) Bleeding Hearts [ATTACH=CONFIG]18150[/ATTACH] Harebell [ATTACH=CONFIG]22367[/ATTACH] Jonquil [ATTACH=CONFIG]55099[/ATTACH] |
I think these are lovely. You will have to post the rest of them before your Mom makes off with the whole thing. :D

|
Quite a lot of the material I hand-dyed. :lol:
I was thinking on doing a 1/2" cross hatch on the basket squares and a feathered wreath on the solid squares. Maybe I'm just being too ambitious on this sucker since it's a queenie but we'll see. |
Wonderful work! I love that basket pattern and each of the flowers is so realistic looking!! Awesome job...and you're hand dying fabrics, too....WOW you're finishing this in record time, if you ask me.
|
Awesome! I can't wait to see the finished quilt!
|
Absolutely beautiful blocks. They will be so pretty all put together. Can't wait to see it.

I have very ittle creativity either and when I try to adjust a pattern or draw my own from something I've seen, it's not pretty. Actually the project turns out great but the process of trying to make my own pattern, that's not pretty.
|
Got 3 more of those puppies done. I just have to get them posted when I get home from work. (Needless to say, things have gotten slow around here in the last little while)
I just have the 4 roses to do. I got the leaves for them turned and stuffed last night. tonight I want to sew the handles to the baskets and do the pressing. I'm going to be doing one in yellow, one in pink, one in red and one in peach. So here's hoping that they turn out. :lol: |
I love your blocks. You're doing a great job.
Now for the dumb question (I know there are no dumb questions, just dumb answers) who or what is EB - you said the patterns were from there? I may want to try this pattern. I love doing hand applique, cause it's a great travel project. |
love them all...:)

It looks like there is alot of embellishing and 3D work put into them!! I can't WAIT to see how it will look when its all finished and quilted. I really hope to post photos! |
