Here is 3 more picture, of my newest quilt.. And, to me a real test for doing(using ) the blanket stitch.. A younger brother wanted me to make him a quilt, using the word, "TRIUMPH", in the middle of his quilt.. As to what block, I'm not sure of yet.. And for some of you's that are wondering why the triumph word, will be, in his quilt.. The reason why, is that he is being rehabilitated, in a correctional facility, and will be released(paroled) next Sept...One more thing, and I'm sold on this product called "Steam-A-Seam. It's a fusible webbing, and I used it for the first time, with the blanket stitch, and lettering. To me a wonderful product..

A picture of my quilt using 2"squares, to make the 4 patch, for this quilt.

I love it!!! I did a similar one but I don't think it was as nice as yours.

Thanks for sharing.

Your "Triumph" really is a triumph!! It looks great and I can't wait to see the whole quilt when that time comes. :D :thumbup:
Your 4-patch is wonderful, it looks very retro to me, and makes me smile :D:D

I love that four patch quilt! The Triumph word looks great and is a great word for your brother! I'm anxious to see the rest!

Steam a seam is great, but I still run a little fray-check over the exposed edges. You always do such nice work.

Great job.

Looks good your triumph, the four patch also.

babeegirl 10-09-2008 05:20 AM

Looking good Don! I love Steam a Seam 2 also. I like that its repositionable and you dont have to iron it on first to get it to stay where you want, that way you can play around with your shapes.

Cool quilt Don :thumbup:

Bevanger 10-09-2008 05:33 AM

I had to really look to see the 4 patch. It just looked like floating diamonds/.squares. VERY COOL..... I love it.....

Marcia 10-09-2008 05:57 AM

Your 4 patch quilt is wonderful. Cannot wait to see your Triumph quilt.

I like both! The lettering might need to be top stitched in matching thread just to make sure it stays. The 4-patch is realy neat. I can picture that using my 30's repro fabric. I really love it.

Missi 10-09-2008 08:11 AM

I love the 4 patch!! I have one similar to it in my projects to be started pile. Speaking of that pile -what is it called? The fabrics have been purchased along with the patter so it is not yet a UFO or even a WIP. What is it? Help anyone :)
