More pics of her crazy quilts
One of her finished crazy quilts which shows the intricate embroidery work she did on the binding! She amazed me! [ATTACH=CONFIG]3908[/ATTACH] Another fence rail [ATTACH=CONFIG]3909[/ATTACH] Another crazy quilt [ATTACH=CONFIG]4251[/ATTACH] |
What did she use for backing and batting to keep them from being too heavy and hot?
|
oops...didn't realize I posted the same pic twice! LOL
|
Those are very cute, and they will last forever! So nice and cheerful and bright!
Here in Wisconsin it's getting cold.... we love quilts that are heavy and hot. |
No batting and a polyester backing and she tied them, with embroidery floss.... hiding the stitch on the top part and tying the knot on the backside
|
Beautiful quilt collection! I really like the embroidery work! :D :D :D
|
She amazed me doing all this embroidery work on all these quilts over I can't guess how many years....we have a few of them...the 11 she left for me to finish and I was so intimidated but also thrilled that she thought of me...but out of 4 DIL's I am the only one that quilts (one comes to me when she needs a button sewed on!) and it will take me forever but I intend on doing it! She went into a NH a couple months ago.... on my last visit I told her I had two of them pin basted and she didn't know what that was! LOL

She makes polyester look good!!! Those are great!!!
|
So has anyone else made polyester quilts? Seems to me they would last forever. But I'd be afraid that the quilt police would get me if I tried!!!!
