and I'd quilt the border with apple slices.
|
Looks great! I always have a hard time when we do challlenges in our guild.
|
Excellent piecing!! Yes, needs some type of border.
|
That's very pretty.
How do you get your seams so perfect? |
oh this is so cute!!! I love it!!
|
Okay then..... borders it will be, but I'll have to use something in my stash because I am not buying another piece of fabric this month. It may be yellow, black, or pink.... no not pink. LOL
Seams perfect? Don't look to close. Some of them are right on and some are not. I do like things perfect, but I'm not there yet when it comes to seams. I have learned a few tricks to get me closer. I pressed all seams in the nine patches to the dark fabric so they were opposing when I sewed the rows together. I pinned right past the seam by a couple of threads in the direction I would be sewing, which locks the seams together. |
i would go with the same color as the apple or the same color as the green
|
I think you did a good job...and I really like the fabric you used for the apples.
I agree, it does need borders. |
Your quilt is really nice. I think a narrow 1/2" dark green together with a 2 1/2" red border would be effective :-P

I took the easy way out because I don't have the patience to sew a bunch of curves. I used the whole template for the apple, then used the inside curve to make the leaves and the stem. Now, do you think it need a border? I learned long ago after I bought all the fabric for the quilt including the borders that after I got the top done I didn't like the borders. So now I do the top and then I choose the border after the top is complete. |
