Finally quilted Papa’s Delight
Hello Quilters! I think I pieced this about 2 months ago. I couldn’t get out to look for a backing. I finally ordered one online. It was more a cheddar color than a corn yellow. Anyway, I had to use it so I quilted like I normally do, a meander or stipple. I quilted at first following the circles. I stitched in the ditch , then about 3/4 inch inside. I didn’t like the puffy look so I had to pick out those stitches 😩and start with my meander.
sorry, pictures load sideways when I resize them. Doesn’t make my work look good. I really like this block and the illions of circles it makes.-Toogie

This is one very exciting quilt! It is at the top of the list gorgeous!! The blacks and Whites are the perfect blends and the yellow is the perfect "pop"! A show quilt for sure. Thanks for sharing this beauty.

Toogie, It looks fantastic, sideways or not. I feel your pain having to rip out, but the quilter always knows best, albeit too late sometimes. I too, have always loved this block and your black and white makes it pop. Great job.
