Finished Eclipse
 
1 Attachment(s)
I just finished binding this quilt I quilted on our "new old" longarm. I'm still a little intimidated, but am having such fun learning how to use the machine. I quilted a sort of paisley swirl. This is for my BIL and his girlfriend. He likes green, she likes purple, and they both wanted modern. Thanks for all the encouragement I always get from you all! I keep learning!

A lovely finish. I can see lots of secondary patterns in there.

Beautiful and the design is very intriguing. You can certainly spend lots of time looking at the secondary effects of the design. Yes, it does portray an Eclipse.

Very nice colors, and I love the "modern" effect.

Nice quilt. I have a couple questions if you don't mind. What size were your blocks? Did you follow the pattern in your quarter sphere placement or did you improvise?

brandeesmom 07-08-2016 08:52 AM

I love your quilt and the pattern and colors are one of my favorites! Nice job!

I think the blocks were 8-1/2 inch finished. I did follow the suggested placement, rather than just random. I'm sorry the colors didn't show as they really are. The shaded part of the porch makes it look like the bottom half of the quilt had different colors than the top half, but they're all the same.

Nice quilt, I think they are going to like it as well. I like the way the circles have movement.

The color combination works beautifully! Very nice quilt!

It is a winner on all counts. Enjoy your new "old" machine.

mac 07-09-2016 07:40 AM

Wow, great color selection. All the different patterns it makes really keeps your attention on the quilt. I love when a quilt design, through color or pattern, makes your eye move around the quilt and keeps you looking at the quilt longer than normal. Wonderful job.

cindy4857 07-09-2016 11:54 AM

Well done. It's beautiful. I'm sure they will love it.

MargeD 07-09-2016 04:22 PM

It's a lovely quilt - purple and green go very well together, your quilt is proof of that. They are going to love the quilt.

ccthomas 07-09-2016 05:36 PM
