Eurika Eight Year Quilt
 
1 Attachment(s)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]316274[/ATTACH]The material for this quilt sat around for eitght years in my sewing room. I joined a quilt group just to work on this quilt. After three months of hard work I have the top peaced. Thanks to the support of the quilt group, I finally got it peaced; because without them it would still just be setting in a bag in my sewing room. The pattern is Eureka by Jackie's Animas Quilts, the material was also produced by her, but is no longer available. I believe that the pattern is still available on her website. Her website is http://www.animasquilts.com and her e-mail is [email protected]. Sorry I didn't think to give the pattern name in my first post.

Thank goodness you found the group, it is an awesome quilt, so complex and timeconsuming. It is really a tribute to you that you finished. And of course I am so glad to get to see it.

Oh .. eight years before you worked on this fabulous quilt... it is just beautiful. So glad you found your buddies to get you going. It would have been a real shame to let it sit for another ??? years. You should be so proud !

It looks like it was incredibly complicated to piece. Good job!

It is lovely and you did a fantastic job. You were lucky to find a group who gave you so much support.

Give yourself a pat on the back for sticking that out. The result is beautiful. 88 years wouldn't be long enough for me.

Jackie Spencer 02-29-2012 05:08 PM

Nettie Phillips 02-29-2012 05:47 PM

It was worth the wait. It is gorgeous.

RedGarnet222 02-29-2012 05:53 PM

I have the pattern and have bought all my fabrics for this one too. It is on the top of my list now. Just as soon as the charity silent auction is finished I am gonna make it. I sure hope mine looks a great as yours does. I think mine is in purples and light green though. (I bought it last fall)

sylvia77 03-01-2012 10:27 AM

It's beautiful! I made this pattern too and I was able to use her fabrics in it as well.

barbo117 03-03-2012 08:58 AM

It is a beautiful quilt, all those little triangles, yipes would take me 80 years to finish. Your work is outstanding!!!

Nantie 03-03-2012 09:04 AM

when i first saw this pattern it was a had to have, i bought it from keepsake i think and then my lqs bought and sold the pattern and fabric as well, unfortunately it remains a ufo with most of the initial cutting done and waiting for me to bring it to the top of the list...your beautiful quilt should help to do that

Very beautiful Log cabin-Some quilt tops just have to sit for a while to age! Fabrics colors change every year it seems. You should hang this one!

Peggy Jeanne 03-06-2012 06:17 PM
