Beautiful!!
|
That is so cute. I love it. Great job.
|
That is very pretty redwork, you did a wonderful job on this :D:D:D
|
This is precious and I know it will be loved!
|
Absolutly adorable! I love redwork. Did you do it by hand or on a machine? I'm doing a Christmas rework by hand. Eight squares done, 12 to go. Actually it is going faster than I thought it would. But then I am keeping the stitches really simple. As soon as I can get the software for my embroidery machine I am going to do one with it.
|
How lovely!
|
Gorgeous :thumbup: I have some of those same designs but haven't done anything with them yet. :D
|
Great work! I have redwork bears to sash together for a quilt. No one to give it to at this point. Just like to embroidery when I grow tired of piecing quilt blocks. :)
|
Great work and very cute.
|
i love it. great job
|
Beautiful work, very lucky friend to have you do this, sure it will be very loved.
|
It is absolutely gorgeous :thumbup: :thumbup:
|
Sooooooooooo Pretty, just one more thing I'd like to try! I'll need to live to be 120!
|
Beautiful! I love it!! What size are your blocks?
|
It's machine embroidered, quilted on my Tin Lizzie. The white (embroidered) squares are cut 8.5inches, the sashing is cut 3.5 inches, the border (white on white) is cut 6 inches. I made a double bed size like this with 10.5 inch white embroidered squares and 4 inch sashing. the larger quilt had larger embroidery designs. They go together quickly and the redwork is easy because it's all one color.
I seem to like the simple stuff. |

Simple is great as far as I'm concerned. I can't wait to get my software. My lqs has done some beautiful stuff, but I do love redwork!
|
What a sweet little quilt! Wonderful job!
|
How cute! I've always loved redwork. The embroidery is by your machine? You said you made it in a day. If I hand embroidered those cute designs it would take me eons! The designs are very charming.
|
Chele, I know what you mean about doing it by hand. I've been working on my blocks for 3 weeks and have 8 done. Oh well, it keeps me off the streets and out of the bars at night :lol:
|
I have to say how much I admire hand embroidery! I can't do it (arthritus) so the best I can do is by machine. I feel lucky to have my embroidery machine, it has the advantage of being fast but is not hand done. It's like machine VS hand quilting, I couldn't hand quilt either. Technolegy makes so many things possible.
|
It is wonderful!
|
That's fantastic and I love the polka dots, too!
|
Oh ... What a sweet quilt. I do love the redwork (bluework too) it is so wonderful. I love that you kept it simple, it shows off the blocks more.
