I'm a bedskirt person as I don't like quilt too heavy & going to the floor. I have to be able to stick my feet out when I get too hot. You can use a piece of muslin to make the bedspring cover part & then make a dust ruffle with some fabric used in your quilt. The kind with a pleat every 8-10" vs. gathered would probably be my choice to go with your quilt.

Great job! I have that border fabric, too. It's possibly my favorite fabric in the whole world!

$129.00 to quilt a king-sized???!!! :shock: I asked a co-worker how much the woman who does her quilting would probably charge to do a quilt my students and I made for our 2010 school auction. It was about 56" x 72." She told me, "About $135." That was for a basic all-over design -- nothing fancy, just large stippling!!! To top it all off, my co-worker's daughter was in the class that made the quilt so you'd think she could have tried to get the quilter to reduce the price for our auction! I decided to let my students tie it which made them all very happy! :oops: She recently had a quilt done by a different longarmer and was charged about $35. This quilt looked to be about 45" square. She said that for a twin size quilt the woman would probably charge around $80. Again, just a simple, all-over design.

So sorry!!! I meant to tell you how beautiful your scrappy quilt turned out. :oops: I absolutely love it!! :thumbup:

Great job. I wondered in your title if you meant that your sister is scrappy. :lol:

Love it!

Thank you everyone for the great feedback on it. I am loving it on my bed! The bed I have is a huge king pillow top mattress and it IS hard to make. hhahahaha

I forgot to give credit to the lady I got the pattern from...

She has some great ideas on her sight.

Where I have it quilted, I do get a great price. Considering I have been reading about prices at different parts of the country and out of the country.

Might be a long time before I do another one this large LOL...

Wow! It is gorgeous! Great job!

Wow, that is beautiful. I love the border fabric. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful!!! :thumbup: :D
