I'm liking it. Looks good with the focus fabrics in it.

I now try to keep my hands away from there and am doing much better. Hope this helps.



Sometimes I use the laptop but I was on the desktop when it was doing it....

I love your scraps! I will be looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Looks like a beautiful scrappy in the making.

It's good to know you are back and in one piece after your mishaps, and the colorful bits you put together look just wonderful!

I have finished the quilt top. The first picture shows the left side of the panel with the middle because when I join all of them you won't be able to see all of that one.

The second pic show the quilt all finished.
It ended up being 70x61. I didn't want it to be so wide. I wasn't paying attention. I can't do anything about it now lol.

Notice that you don't see the little victorian boy's face anymore, it didn't look right, so out it went. I also have to colorize a couple strips that look too white.

This was a fun project. I will quilt it tomorrow....I took all these pics at night. I will see if I can take one outside as these pics don't give the total look much credit. I see that you can't see all the pretty Laurel Burch disigns in the blocks. ....

Absolutely gorgeous. What a work of art, and you made it seem so effortless. Beautiful job.

I just kept following this thread. Just so interesting not too. Oh, and the quilt is beautiful, and it is in art terms abstract. I have a fancy for the abstract. I would love someday to try an abstract quilt wall hanging. Your beautiful quilt has inspired me. Thank you!

Goodmorning Quilters, my day is just beginning as I just rolled out of my bed lol. I took some pics of the quilt outside and some of the areas on it. I am thinking I should make it longer but the mood has left me lol. I don't know if later during the day as I put fabric away if the mood will hit me again. I am so wanting to go ahead with the quilting but it looks so odd to me being wider than longer...it must be just me. Maybe this is the quilt to be on the couch back?
