Several have asked that I post an overall picture of my avatar quilt. I pulled it out of the closed and tried. Hope this helps. Thanks for looking.

How long did it take you to applique? It's beautiful!

It's beautiful. Can you tell us about it? Did you design it yourself, did you make it from a kit, a magazine, how long did it take? I'm very impressed. I've never done applique, but want to. Need to keep your pictures in front of me for inspiration.

Too beautiful to have to pull out of a closet! It's summertime and that beautiful quilt is perfect for summer or spring! Now I see you are in Florida-it can be out all year!

This is a beautiful quilt, and I am with LoriEl-it is way to gorgeous to have to pull out of the closet.
Also, I love the colors of the quilt underneath in the final picture. Could you also post a pic of that one as well?

That is beautiful. What is the pattern name? I would like to buy that one. Applique is so relaxing while hubby is driving us to and from work.

Your quilt is stunning!

Absolutely gorgeous!! Your hand work is exquisite!!

QuiltnCowgirl 07-27-2011 10:24 AM

Wow - that is beautiful!! Hope you find a place for it now that you took it out of the closet to share pictures with us. If you don't have a bed to put it on, it at least should be on a quilt rack next to your bed or couch.

Jim's Gem 07-27-2011 10:35 AM

Gorgeous quilt!

blueangel 07-27-2011 06:42 PM

Maureen 07-27-2011 06:57 PM

Why is it in the closet? It should atleast be on a bed or chair.

BuzzinBumble 07-28-2011 04:17 AM

Keeping that gorgeous quilt in the closet is like hiding your light under a bushel!

Dotsie 07-28-2011 04:23 AM

Yes , why in the closet? Take out and show somewhere, it is so beautiful.

debcavan 07-28-2011 04:26 AM

it is gorgeous, simply gorgeous. It was great to see it larger and get to see some of the wonderful fabrics you chose.

Thanks for the up close pictures, it's gorgeous. What a lot of work - you did a great job.

Aquarius 07-28-2011 04:33 AM

Oh my gosh, that's beautiful. A lot of work went into that. I can't imagine ever doing anything like, although I would love to try.
