FABULOUS

What gorgeous fabric! What exquisite color placement! What fine workmanship!

I don't mean to gush, but...

Are the fabrics cotton? They look like silk on velvet.

johnette 07-20-2009 04:58 PM

Thanks so much. Yes, they are 100% cotton fabrics. I buy a yard or two when ever I find batiks on sale. Building up my stash but it's never enough...:)

Thanks for the encouragement and the compliments. I am blushing.

Finally, here it is. My pics not too great, but you can get the idea. Now for the quilting. I am going to make a wallhanging first to try out my new spring loaded free motion foot. If I can talk myself into it, I will try it on this quilt. Otherwise, stitch in the ditch.

You did a beautiful job varigated thread in the quilting would stand out on the black background.

RedGarnet222 09-19-2009 02:22 PM

Wow! Nice quilt top. Have you chosen a quilting design yet? It is so vibrant it looks like it is under a black light. Very cool.

johnette 09-19-2009 02:56 PM

I really don't know how I will quilt it yet. I have only done stitch in the ditch on the machine. I am going to do a wall hanging and see if I can learn to do some free motion. If I am happy with it, I might try to do this quilt in free motion. I don't know.
Thanks everyone for the nice words. I appreciate it very much.

BlueChicken 09-19-2009 03:18 PM

Absolutely gorgeous! Pride might be one of the "seven deadly sins" but I'm telling you that if you're NOT proud as can be of that quilt you couldn't possibly be human!! ;) :) You've done a wonderful job on it!!!!!
