this is the quilt i started for my son, ethan, when he was 7. now he's 40.
i'm lucky he's a patient man who loves his mother! it started out as twin, then double and finally queen. it had a row top and bottom of blacks, but that made it way too long. it was all over the floor. now it's fine. it's 98-1/2 x 97-1/2. what happened to that extra inch? any opinions? LOL! stitch close-up [ATTACH=CONFIG]20705[/ATTACH] close-up of the stitching [ATTACH=CONFIG]20705[/ATTACH] |

Wow good for you on finishing. It looks great and if you don't mind I'm lmao. I think i would have thrown it out years ago.
|
Great job! I admire you, I can't remember how I wanted to do something a year ago, much less 33 years ago!
|
It looks amazing and how it didn't date itself! I'm sure it will be a treasure for him to keep and pass on..:))Great show! Skeat
|
you are just too cute :) it looks great!

to tell the truth, the longer i took to finish it, the more i couldn't stand the thought of looking at it. if my daughter hadn't gotten on my case, it would still be folded up somewhere. of course, she's waiting for her own 33-yr-old-quilt now. it just needs pics, then it goes to her house.

ooh very nice!!! that has to be the longest record UFO!! :) I bet you are happy to have it completed!
|
i am just happy to have it GONE!
when i want to see it, i can visit his house. LOL! |
Worth the wait! Gives me hope--if you can finish a quilt after all this time, maybe I can finish some of my UFOs too! I'm sure he loves his quilt!
|
I like it.
Congratulations on finishing it! |
That's a great story to go with a great quilt! Very pretty and lively..
|
ha ha and I thought my 20 year quilt was setting a record!
sometimes you do just get sick and tired of something.... and for some reason some quilts take forever to do, yet another can get itself done in less than a week! |
OH Thank You! LOL.. Makes me feel better about my 27 year old UFO. LOL.. I did finish it just a few weeks ago . It was a baby quilt for my first son..Now I am just waiting for him to find a girl, get married and use it for his first child ! It is a GREAT quilt...

You selected beautiful colors. I like the nine patch blocks scattered through it. Congrats.

Fantastic job, I love the bright colors. He should prize this one since he grew up with it. Bill'sBonBon

Congratulations!! And yes, it's as timely today as it was 33 years ago. That's the beauty of the classic patterns. I just love the color choices and the color bands. Especially the black and white in the center. (or is that gray? What a great story. Hope you wrote it down for him to pass on down with the quilt. :lol:
