How long did it take your quilt inspector to lay down on the job.

BettyGee 02-23-2012 07:19 AM

That is absolutely gorgeous and the kitty is pretty darn adorable too. Scissor Queen asked about the white in her block in another posting and she should look at your quilt and see how the white makes it "sparkle."

caspharm 02-23-2012 07:36 AM

Looks good and so does the quilt inspector. :)

trolleystation 02-23-2012 07:38 AM

Blue is my favorite color..and I think your cat likes it too.

the binding makes the border really stand out < I like this way, I do all my quilts this style it's just sort of puts the finishing touch to the complete quilt.
love the pattern and colors.

Oh, so spring like and kitty looks happy to rest in the garden of flowers.

the binding serves as a frame to hold the quilt in and it is a gorgeous quilt. Good work.

KyKaren1949 02-23-2012 11:23 AM

Very nice; and I think it's just a perfect balance between the whites and other colors!

You're absolutely right. The quilt is very pretty and I love your fabric.

Dina 02-23-2012 06:07 PM

Thanks for all the kind words about my quilt and my cat! For those of you who asked, I got this pattern from a book called Mystery Quilts by Rita Fishel. The pattern is called Road to Springfield and it is 64" x 76". My son bought the book for me for Christmas and he got it from Amazon.

I saw this quilt when you were choosing your borders and I like what you did. The blue binding works great! Cat seems to agree too! Very nice.
peace

I really like that narrow white border. Really made the quilt 'pop'.

That works real well. Keep quilting.

Oh! I just LOVE that quilt! You did a wonderful job on it, and I definitely don't think there's too much white. :) The border is perfect and the binding really finishes it well. :)

Thanks for sharing it with us!

Thanks to all of you who helped me with the border decisions. I no longer think there is too much white in this quilt.

Inspector approves. Yes, the solid binding on the print border finishes it off prefectly.

eastermarie 02-24-2012 08:38 AM
