drunkard's path
 
1 Attachment(s)
I made this drunkard's path design for my friend Mark. I had given his wife a lap quilt in Janaury and now his said she will not let him use it...so...I have made this one for him. Still have to quilt it, but I hope he likes it. It was fun to make. It measures 65x65.

I keep the concave piece on the bottom and convex piece on top and it always works out. I have never had a problem with curves using this method.

So pretty-love the fabrics!

Wonderful quilt! Anyone would love that! :thumbup:

EvelynJ 06-26-2012 03:45 PM

That's funny....now they will each have their very own special quilts. What a nice gesture. Mark's wife will be jealous and try to steal his too. It's wonderful.

malega 06-26-2012 04:30 PM

That is stunning, can't wait to see it quilted.

Tweety2911 06-26-2012 04:32 PM

That is really pretty. I have a batik Drunkard's Path sandwiched and I am getting ready to quilt it. Its busy so I think I am only going to do echo quilting. How are you going to quilt yours?

southernmema 06-28-2012 03:45 AM
