It's almost done. Coming into the home stretch! Two more sides of flying geese, another purple border and then a wider cream border. Then I have to iron and starch 10 1/2 yards of fabric for the backing.

Going to get more of the geese done tonight.

I told my friend this is like being 9 1/2 months pregnant--so ready to have it be done!

Oh wow!! I bought the bed runner size pattern. Got to get going on it if it takes that long! Yours is gorgeous!!

That is SO BEAUTIFUL! Wedding Star, is that paper pieced? Your own pattern?

seamstome 07-25-2011 04:20 PM

Oh no not my pattern....Judy Niemeyer's.

This is a King 114 by 126. I started it Memorial Day 2010. I set it aside for about 6 months.

Absolutely gorgeous. Will love seeing the finished quilt. Thank you for sharing.

debcavan 07-25-2011 04:49 PM

it look wonderful. Two friends did this quilt. It was the hardest thing one of them had ever done. But oh was it gorgeous. So I would say as pretty as the quilt looks on the photo, it doesn't start to do it justice.

It's very, very striking. A ton of work.

Is this your second one!?!?!?? If looks like a different colorway than your avatar, but that could just be the lighting or my monitor.

sparkys_mom 07-25-2011 05:48 PM

That is just stunning. I can't imagine ever being able to do that.

QuiltE 07-25-2011 05:49 PM

Stunning, Indeed!

seamstome 07-25-2011 06:14 PM

Thanks for all of the compliments. No it is my first one....only looks different from my avatar because of camera lighting with no flash. It is creams, purple, blue, mauve and green.

It is definitely the hardest quilt I have ever done.

fidgety 07-25-2011 06:19 PM

WOW. that is beautiful!!!!!!
If you need a place to store it You can use my bed!!!!!! lol...

jdiane318 07-25-2011 06:20 PM

Being as it is Judy Niemeyer's pattern, are the wild geese paper-pieced, too?

mollymct 07-25-2011 06:22 PM

Fantastic!!

Novice.for.now 07-25-2011 06:23 PM

fixfido 07-25-2011 06:30 PM

Honestly, that's my idea of the PERFECT quilt. I could look at that all day!

seamstome 07-25-2011 06:30 PM

Yes the geese are pp'd. All 225 or so of them.

Once I get it done Im trying to figure out how to press it. It is one wadded up mess from all of the handling. I have an extra wide ironing board and my girlfriend has one too. I may have to borrow hers and put the two together so I have a big enough surface.

I have to measure and pin the borders in my livingroom because this quilt is 10 1/2 by 9 1/2 and it wont fit in my sewing room.
