I love that quilt & the quilting is awesome. Was that your own pattern?

awe it's so cute!
Your quilting is very very good!

Cute quilt. I like the cupcakes

It is my own design. I used a square of my background fabric and cut an oval out. I stitched around the raw edge of the oval and removed most of the white fabric around the collie portrait. I then used iron-on bias tape around the oval. Sewed it down on both edges. I adding batting and backing to the square piece and then FMQ'd the words. Then added the dark border. When I finished the inner square, I sewed my surrounding blocks together (2 for each side). Measured them and then cut the inner piece to the size of the 2 blocks sewn together. Added the sewn blocks to each side. Sewed on the two outer squares and then sewed those pieces to the inner block. That is as far as I have gotten.

Although this block is all bias pieces, it goes together very easily. Matching the angle pieces was a bit tricky for me but I used the advice of a Board member and just sewed at the seams to be sure they matched first. Then I only had to rip that small amount. If, after that, they still did not match perfectly, I used a Micron (permanent) pen and filled in to make it look like they match. Worked for me. Thank you for your input and inquiry. So many Board members have helped me in the past that I am thrilled if I am able to help someone else. Yolanda

Rob, your quilt is adorable, and I love, love, love the quilting. How did you do it? I would like to use that pattern on an Asian quilt I have made, but I've been afraid to try it. I have a DSM with a 9" harp and a Tiara sit-down quilter. Thanks for your reply.

Nice indeed love the colors great job.
