Looking back I found that I started this quilt on Nov. 17th, 2010. It was a whole lot of work and there were months at a time that I didn't work on it. I got it on the quilting frame probably 5 months ago? (not sure). My machine was working so horribly that I gave up after spending more time trying to get it stitching well than I was actually quilting.
Yesterday I just walked into the room and started quilting. No warming it up, no testing, nothing. Of course it worked just fine and I finished the quilting this morning. I have the binding about ready to sew on so it will be almost a year in the making. It's for my daughter and maybe THIS Christmas she'll get it. |
WOW !! Amazed !! Beautiful !

I have been in a MAJOR funk for about 6 months. I literally couldn't even open my sewing room door nor the room the longarm is in. I worked hours and hours, days and days, trying to get the quilting right. I picked out stitching more than I quilted and I just couldn't take it anymore. I haven't even LOOKED at my blog nor here... I just couldn't. I totally gave up.
Suddenly I felt like doing it and just DID IT. |
A truly gorgeous quilt.
|

Oh yes, I remember this masterpiece as you shared the various stages of completion. You should really take it outside into natural light and get lots of pictures of it. Quilts this fine don't happen every day. Congratulations on your finish!
|
Well worth the wait. What a beautiful quilt. I love the colors and the quilting you did on it. She will love it to pieces. Great job!
|
It's beautiful! Good to see you back here...you've been missed!
