I finally finished! I started this quilt last year. It is a 5th anniversary gift for my brother and sister-in-law. (It's a little late - 7 mos, their anniversary was in March). It measures 16 x 16.

Thanks for looking! (P.S.-please ignore the stray thread on the back picture :roll: )

This is so great. I love the color combination and have yet to tackle this technique (yet:))
I'm sure they'll just love this.

That is a really beautiful piece! Congratulations on completion!

I love it!! Especially love the quilting and the colors!!

It's Beautiful!! :thumbup:
I am so impressed. Thank
you for sharing with us today.
:D :D :D :D

i love it :wink: is that the technique where you use the iron-on 'leading' or did you use black bias tape. in any case, you did a wonderful job.

That is really beautiful.

Beautiful! I love the stained glass look.

Wow...that is beautiful!!! What pattern did you use? I did a fairy like that. This is not a great picture.

Love that quilt. Was it done with iron on bias. I think someone asked that but I didn't see the response. You did a great job.

I love celtic knots - you have done a great job.
It looks beautiful.

It's beautiful. Front and back. :D :D :D

Beautiful job!!!

WOW! That is beautiful!

OMG that is just beautiful!!! I'm sure they won't mind it being late at all when they see how spectacular it turned out!! You did an absolutely fantastic job!!

Thanks for the kind comments everyone!

I used the iron on bias, after it was on, I stiched it down.

Here's a link to the pattern I used, it's the Stained Glass Celtic Cross.
There are some beautiful patterns on this site.

The pattern was twice the size, I reduced it to half.

You did wonderful work. It is beautiful

That is beautiful. I bet they are going to love it. I love the colors, pattern and the quilting.

Wow your celtic cross glows like the sun is streaming through it. How nice.

It just glows! What a great job you did!

I so enjoy you celtic wallhanging and wonder if you have a source that you get your bias tape from. I have been looking for gold to buy bulk and I seem to be at a loss. I can find it in the 11 yard packages but would like to get 50 at a more reasonable price.

once again what a wonderful job you did.

I love it.

Thanks again everyone. I hope they like it!


Have you tried Create for Less?

It is the 11 yard package, but it seems like it's a pretty good price.

It's a lovely wallhanging! I would love to do one like that for a friend that is Scot/Irish. Is this a registered pattern or one that you created? And if I may ask ... I would love to know where to find it!

Thanks in advance for any information..

BTW, I am a new quilter and have so enjoyed looking at all the lovely works that many have posted here!

FANTASTIC!! They will LOVE it, late or not. Great job.

Love it!!! You did a great job. I've been wanting to do a celtic design for awhile, but it scares me a little. Great work!!!

Good things come to those who wait! That is just stunning.

Lucky brother, great job!

Thanks again! :D I'm pretty sure they will like it, my SIL likes all things celtic (especially after reading the Outlander books). Their wedding rings are in a celtic design.


You can find the pattern at:

Wow, that's awesome. I did a table runner and loved it. I had trouble finding more patterns that were easy enough for a beginner. Thanks for the website.
