Devil's Claw quilt - UFO done!
 
2 Attachment(s)
Here's a quilt that I finished today that had been languishing in my unfinished pile for quite some time. I started it last summer and shelved it after having all of 1 block done. :( So, I pulled it back out over the Christmas/New Years holiday break and finished it up today, New Years Day. A good way to start the new year! It's big, measures 100" x 100", so will fit on our king size bed. The block pattern name is called "Devil's Claw". I used reds in the sashings between the blocks and one of the borders, and blacks in the cornerstones and border areas. I really like using blacks in a quilt, it's a dramatic color that gives quilts a nice kick. I did a scalloped border on it as well, it's a nice difference from doing a straight edge.

As always Eddie, you never disappoint. I love using black in a quilt too and will begin a 4 path posy this month with a black background. Love the scallop edge and your color choices. A great way to begin the new year. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Totally awesome and aa great way to start the New Year !! I was hoping to get some quilting in today to start my New Year but no luck!

Simply beautiful. It really gives that "old fashion" and not really sure why. To me it screams "cuddle with me, cuddle with me" and I honestly can say not many say that. Great Job on both the quilt and the quilting.

Eddie, I can't believe how fast you made this quilt and with a scallop, no less! It's beautiful!

olebat 01-03-2012 06:09 AM

Striking use of color. The binding on the scallops sets everything off. Another divine project.
