My turn to share!

Hi! I have been stalking this messge board for a LONG time and thought it was about time that I share a few of my pics! About 20 years ago, I took a quilting class. We made sampler blocks, but even tho, I loved the whole process, I never finished the quilt. (Life just got too busy). About 2 years ago, I decided to finish that quilt and have been piecing (and stalking this board) ever since. I have learned SOOOOO much from all of you and many of my quilts have been inspired by you! THANK YOU!
This is the sampler quilt I made. I havent learned how to free hand quilt yet. I am terrified I will ruin a top if I try! So until I get my nerve up to try, I send my tops to Rhonda Dranter in Illinois. Even after I learn SOMEDAY, I will still send my favorite quilts to her...everything she does is perfect and beautiful! :) [ATTACH=CONFIG]407176[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]407182[/ATTACH] |
Glad you have quit "lurking" and are now showing. That is a beautiful quilt and looks pretty professional from here. Nice sharp points....Welcome and please share more. I have sewn. but not quilted, all my life and have learned so much in the past year on this board. Freezer paper and glue, who knew???
|
That is absolutely gorgeous!!! It looks so warm and inviting. I love all the colors you put in it.
|
WOW!!! I love them. Your colors are great. Keep at it. Hugs

A truly beautiful quilt, thanks for finally sharing.

That is a lovely sampler. I am glad you shared with us.

That lovely quilt must surely inspire you to make more. It is beautiful. I am not getting along with free motion quilting very well at all and can understand your nervousness. However I like traditional straight line quilting and like the results very much. Good luck with the FMQ.
|
Thank you for all your kind words! :)
Quilter 65....you are right..I now use glu to piece and bind. I have learned so much on this board. I would be lost without it. |

You give us all hope for our UFOs. I don't think I have any quilt UFOs quite that old since I've only been making quilts for about 12 years now. It's never too late to finish a project, especially if you don't tell when you started it! Great work.
