Nicely done!

Love It!

Are those Michigan cherries? :lol: Your quilt turned out really nice!! :thumbup:

Ohhh that is just too cool! I love cherries -- they are in my kitchen and dining room. Do you know if the pattern is available -- could do a table topper :_) Thanks.

Beautiful! You did a great job.

Adorable! I am getting obsessed with vintage looking fabric, quilts and aprons. I love anything with cherries lately. Maybe it's just a phase I'm going thru.

I was wondering what your avatar looked like. :lol: Very pretty quilt! :thumbup:

Thank you! And, no, there's no pattern. It's just an Irish Chain variation with the applique blocks where the empty part would be. I drew it on graph paper and went from there.

How awesome! We always got our Michigan cherries from the stands. My mom makes homemade cherry pie filling with them and we either eat it on cheesecake or in pies. They are special treats as they are kinda expensive so we don't buy tooo many of them. I love the name of your new business!

I have some cherry stuff, too! My dishes and some other little things- sugar holder and stuff.

Nope- no pattern. You can get the cherry design itself on Flickr here:

And then just make an Irish Chain around that square. I had originally made the cherries for my Cherry Surprise quilt (on here somewhere) and the white was different so I had to put the little black strip so that the difference wasn't as noticeable. It went together really fast because I was strip piecing.

Thank you! I kinda made it up- drew it on graph paper. I got the cherry shape from a book, but then found it online. The link to the cherry picture is in one of the replies above. It's from a vintage embroidery pattern I believe.

And, yes, it is machine applique and going around the little bumps on the leaves was so time consuming! But I can't imagine trying it by hand.

And everyone else- thank you so much! I know if I post something here I will get lots of pats on the back. Feels good to hear it from people who understand how much work it was! :0)

I love that quilt. You used perfect color for the boarder and in the quilt!

Since my real name is Cherry, you know I LOVE your quilt! One of my sister-in-laws made me a queen size cherry quilt years ago and I still treasure it!

Awesome quilt! You did a fantastic job on it!

Thank you so much Lisa! I went and looked; have to figure out how to print the pattern off --- still learning my way around fun stuff on the computer. You did such a great job, you should be proud!

Your cherry checkerboard quilt is so pretty
& different.

Lovely quilt! I think it's beautiful. :thumbup: Makes me want to make a cherry quilt.

Hi Lisa. I have tried and tried, but cannot figure out how to copy those cherries off of the Flickr site you sent me. Any suggestions? Teach me please :cry:
