1st Quilting Attempt
#1
Well ive made my daughters xmas present as some may have seen. So here is my 1st attempt at a quilt. Its for my granbaby(thats right no D) Jo. She and i have so much in common including colors and fabrics. If any have seen this in person you know that the skull and light pink fabrics have a glitter to them. These are by Fabric traditions. The back is a black fleece with pink and black scotty dogs. The four corners and the middle will be with the B&W skeltons so i can Embroider her name in the middle. So please let me know how you think they turned out. Ohh im also doing it as,,, what ever the name is ( not quilt as you go) its where u cut all 3 layers the same size then quilt each piece with 2" strips front and back to connect them. Anyone know the name of this technique?
Pink n black paisley for most of the middles

They are gorgeous, I'm sure the granbaby will love it. who wouldn't? I think the technique you're referring to is another variation on quilt as you go. But it's lovely, and I'd like to see it when you've finished.
