Christmas Bells completed-thanks for thread selection help!

I posted with question regarding thread color for quilting. I usually use a color that blends into the fabric color, but this piece required something different. I used a khaki green Aurifil 40wt-first time to use 40wt, and I love it! :)

Sew pretty!! :)

That is really pretty! The thread pulled a chameleon and appears to blend with every color on the quilt. I too like quilting with a 40 wt thread.

It's a beautiful quilt. Is that the name of the pattern?

That is really pretty. I would like to have that as a panel and make a large quilt out of it.

That is so beautiful it makes me want to get ready for Christmas.

jillmc 09-05-2015 10:08 AM

Thank you for your kind words. Sorry I didn't include info in original post....
Pattern is Merry Medley by Sandy Gervais, and the panel and border fabric is from a Moda line with th same name-Merry Medley. I believe it is discontinued. I had to adjust my border width as I didn't have enough fabric! Mine finished at 50"x50"..,.original is 56x56.
