It's beautiful, & who cares what the back looks like! If only all mistakes could out so pretty!

Becka 05-17-2011 08:30 AM

You made me laugh out loud, and now my office mates want in on the joke :D

As for the quilt police - I think you'd be lucky if they didn't abscond with it and call it "evidence"...

It's such a fun looking quilt!

Akes 05-17-2011 09:10 AM

Wow! I think it is beautiful. It reminds me of comfy and cozy.

It looks like a perfect porch quilt. One you will enjoy looking @ all the different fabric patches! I think it is wonderful. :D

Oh no! Those give me a head ache. I much preferred the Kaffee Fasset comparison, even if not warranted!

jljack 05-17-2011 01:41 PM

Your own form of "Cavewoman" quilting!! Hahaha!!! Good for you....and "quilt police be gone"!!! :-) :roll: :lol: :lol:

RobertaMarie 05-17-2011 01:48 PM

I love it!!! Like the song says, "I Did It My Way"~~~ true creativity, and nobody's business but your own. I love it when people quilt for fun, and enjoyment of just being creative without worrying about rules and "judging". Not that there is anything wrong with being competitive, but you sound like my kind of person. Bless you, and may you always have such a wonderful attitude toward life.

probison 05-17-2011 03:14 PM

I love your attitude about your project! Enjoy your future projects with as much 'vigor' as you have enjoyed with this quilt! Cheers!

Sandigraham 05-17-2011 03:42 PM

Very pretty!

pegquilter8 05-17-2011 04:37 PM

Bless you my friend for you have saved us all from ridicule. You Made it fun. I too, have the books of samples, have cut away the paper and just started sewing. What a freeing experience. I didn't pin, I didn't measure, but I had a blast and made some kooky placemats and a runner. Love putting them on the table. "Who cares if hespills" Toss in the wash. and if they fall apart, so what- the project only cost me time and a great memory was made.Pegeth

MyWifeMadeME 05-17-2011 05:13 PM

craftybear 05-17-2011 10:48 PM

I like it! great job

christina bennett 05-18-2011 12:05 AM

Yes I agree,
Your art,your fun. Rules are good but once in a while you just have to wing it and have fun!
I am not a fan of the quilt police. I read a book called " it is ok to sit on my quilt". I would suggest the quilt police read it.
Having fun and sharing.
Quilting should bring you happiness...

christina bennett 05-18-2011 12:06 AM

It is Fun! I am glad you shared it.

khlrkat 05-18-2011 02:05 AM

Very nice, just hide from the quilt police under the quilt. They will go away after awhile.

OB 05-18-2011 04:42 AM

jad1044 05-18-2011 11:36 AM

Hey gal, anytime you want to "mess up a quilt" for me - go at it!!! I love it!!! My kind of quilt! It's one thing to want it for show - it's another thing to use as a utility quilt - warmth in the evening setting out - go to the beach! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Three cheers to you!

Jamiestitcher62 05-18-2011 12:05 PM

It's really pretty though. Love the colors.
