Mary I am trying to make the opposite color combination for the back...and would really like to hand quilt.. |
Oh my gosh! That is absolutely gorgeous! I'm still working on my queen size scrappy column and having so much fun with it. I keep getting distracted with holiday projects ... table runners, wall hangings, placemats, pillow cases! I'll get back to it soon ... it's more than 3/4 finished. Can't wait to add that final binding and yell "It's DONE!"

Here's an update on the Column Quilts: Twenty-five quilts were made or donated to the "Quilt to Give" project at the Quilt Expo in Madison WI in October. (The design used was a variation of the Column Quilt projected that I presented on TV.) Last week these quilts were donated to St. John's Hospital in Joplin MO. I interviewed the hand-off of the quilts via SKYPE during a taping of Sewing With Nancy. It was wonderful to see the project create a full circle from the quilting to the giving. I know many of you—or perhaps all of you–have made and given quilts this year. The gift is always in the giving!

Wow, you made my day. Thanks for posting a picture of your Column Quilt!

We get her here but, you have to get up at 6 on Sat morning.

Haven't made one, but Nancy has lots ov videos on You Tube.

I didn't realize it is a McCalls pattern 6528. I picked it up over the weekend when patterns where 0.99. Can't wait to give it a try.
It was probably mentioned in one of the videos but I haven't had time to watch them yet. |
