That is so cute. All my quilts turn out bigger than I meant them to be. It's meant to be.

How clever you are, I love it. I've never done a reversible quilt but I think you're right on about the grid. You could do around the squares on the outer few rows and then switch to the grid for the center part. I'm quilting a queen size quilt now and they do take time. Show us when you're done.

This is so cute! Loveit, love it, love it. Good luck on the hand quilting.

Very pretty quilt, I love the back too!

I have another cherry quilt in the works. I had made 48 cherry applique squares originally, thinking to set them 6 x 8, so I have 18 left after making this quilt. I have a setting block in mind for them, but don't know when I'll get to it. My friend that I showed that design to said she will like it better than this one, so we'll see. I'll have to take a vote when they are both done. I keep coming back to this thread to look at your quilt--it makes me happy!! I am tickled to read that you are making ANOTHER cherry quilt!!!! I cannot wait to see it, too. Please to not wait another 5 years to "birth" this one!!!! |
I keep coming back to your quilt too. It is so pretty. I love it, it's a happy quilt, not fussy, it brings a smile to your face. I'm eager to see the next one.

Oh how very precious your cherry quilt turned out. I love it.
I still would echo quilt around the cherries on the front. along with the stitch in the ditch atound the squares. The back is after all the back right? I love the idea of the little cherry border done in a color contrasting the white. |
What a pretty quilt... :-)
