Here is an all paper pieced wall hanging that I’ve been working on. I don’t know what to call it, so I named it Beach Scene. I got the pattern from:
http://www.suesquiltshop.de/shop/ind...t/643/sed/aGEE,1Tbw3.Rz4lKM7EvTwnthsS1LeZLLqdKfXLCNK It measures 31 X 38. I had it long arm quilted. I was very pleased with the results. Here’s lots of pictures for your viewing pleasure.

I am a paper piecing addict. I took a class years back. As for the paper I use, I used a tisse like paper for this project, but it is difficult to use in my printer because its so thin (jams). I just use regular printer paper and set my machine on the smallest stitch (don't make a mistake cause its not easy to rip out) then paper removal is easy. The 2 esssential tools for paper piecing are: - clover mini iron, I find the most important step is ironing (never use steam) so all the pieces will line up perfectly. - Elmers Washable School Glue Stick. Just a bit to hold the pieces flat. More tips: Cut each foundation paper pattern slightly larger Machine baste each foundation in the 1/4" seam allowance, then trim. It makes aligning all the pieces easier. Use glue stick to secure 1st piece FancyFoot |
Cool beans! Thanks for posting all the pics - it was like watching it go together by magic!! :D
|
Simply Beachy!

I can't believe it! I just finished this, have it all ready to machine quilt. It's a great pattern. I have a lighthouse bedroom and this will be above the bed as a wallhanging. I love your colors - beautiful job quilting it too. Just wait, and I"ll post mine too! Thanx for sharing!!!
|
Gorgeous!

Thanks for all the pics. It was interesting to see the progression of the quilt and to see the detail your long arm quilter used. It is an impressive wall hanging, you should be proud! What a great accomplishment!

That is beautiful, I love the ocean. You did a fantastic job piecing it, I haven't tried paper piecing yet.
Whoever long arm quilted it did a great job, it really brought your piece to life. Wilda |
