"All Through the Woods" quilt completed this morning!
 
2 Attachment(s)
I am sharing pictures of my latest quilt called "All Through the Woods" by Cori Derksen and Myra Harder. I saw this quilt about a year ago here on the board that someone else had completed and just loved it. I started this quilt early last spring and just this morning the binding was applied. The quilt was all appliqued with fuseable web and each design was finished with a blanket stitch. I have made this quilt for my hubby who is quite an outdoors man. This is the first quilt to go onto the 10 foot frame that I built myself this summer. I have a Brother PQ1500s machine with a speed controller mounted on the handlebars of my carriage. It has been quite a learning curve for me, but all in all I am happy with the way it turned out. It was done with a meandering stitch in each individual block. I got a lot of experience in changing colors of thread for the top and winding bobbins for the back! I am so happy now that I am not limited to making wall hanging and lap quilts. By the way, this quilt is queen size. Hope you enjoy the pictures and thanks for looking!

​Your quilt is great! I am sure your hubby will be thrilled with it. Is it going to be a Christmas present?

Love your quilt! And the fabrics you chose to use are just perfect for it. Can you share more info on the frame you built yourself? Where did you buy the directions? Thanks.

I really like this...it definitely has a masculine, outdoors feel to it. But I would love it for myself.

This came out really cute.

I would also like to see the frame you built and how you built it. I purchased a handiquilter but it did not come with a frame. I purchased it from a quilt group buddy. The lady who owns the shop said to use a folding table but I am afraid that would not be sturdy enough. If you could share where you got your pattern, I could have my son make me one. BTW and not to forget, Your quilt is quite nice and I am sure your hubby will just adore it

Thanks. We'll be waiting..for sure. My husband wants to build me one--so we'd really appreciate any information.

And the quilt is beautiful! I love it and I'm sure your DH will also.
