7" Drunkard's path
1 Attachment(s)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]523184[/ATTACH]This is the 7" Drunkard's Path quilt that I made for my Principal who is taking another job July 1st. It has been a rough year for us, and he was pulled in so many different directions all school year....he truly was on a Drunkard's Path. I though the pattern was fitting! The colors are actually dark green, burgundy and brown. with tan/beige backgrounds. My good friend Gagasmith allowed me to use her new HQ Avante long arm to stipple on it.

That is such a fitting gift! And nicely done, too. Being a teacher has its challenges but I can only imagine the pressures a principal has, today. We've had three principals in seven years. Back to your quilt, this was very thoughtful of you and sure to be appreciated.
|
Great job and very good idea.
|
Thanks for all the nice comments! Once I mastered the curved pieces, it went together very quickly.
|
With curves that small, I might be the drunkard after finishing it.
|
Awesome job!

Great quilt.....love your color choices... Cut with template or die cutter? Those who are afraid of curves.....just do it....not hard after first one/two, but must not sew fast...easy dies it.....I'm working on a scrap apple core, cut with GO die....no trouble with strategically placed pin here and there... |
Very pretty, I would not want to deal with curves. Call me a chicken.
