I've missed so much here on this site. I tried to touch base every now and then. Anyway, I finally got my granddaughter's quilt finished at about 3 months of trying to get to it. I have 3 more projects that I need to and then I need to make Christmas gifts. I should have started in January.
This is a disappearing 9 patch, cotton fabric and backing, warm & white batting with an extra layer of high loft polyester. I used So Fine thread on top and Bottom Line in the bobbin. Hope you like. Hope she likes it too. Quilt top with Randi's name showing [ATTACH=CONFIG]51162[/ATTACH] Label. I hate making labels [ATTACH=CONFIG]51169[/ATTACH] She wanted the stars a loops quilting design but I just had to do something else with the border. She's not a foofy girl so feathers were out.

that is absolutely stunning! I love it!
|
Awesome! I love how you did her name! :)
|
It's gorgeous! But I'm wondering what you mean by this?
"warm & white batting with an extra layer of high loft polyester" Do you mean you laid down the warm & white & then the high loft on top of that while you were sandwiching your quilt? |
beatiful quilt. was wondering if extra poly batting is for warmth or for puffy hearts? looks very comfy and cuddly.
|
Very pretty and the quilting is wonderful.
|
Beautiful.
|
How could she not like that. It's beautiful. And welcome back.

The blue is so lovely and soft! I love you you did her name, and the border with the hearts is beautiful! She's a lucky little girl to have a grandma with your talents--I'll bet she can plan on being the recipient of many gorgeous quilts in the future!
|
Beautiful quilt. Love the colors. Great label!
|
Hi Jaquemoe,
I am glad to see you back Jacque. I love seeing your work. This one is just beautiful. I have a soft spot for the hearts on quilts. I know she is going to cherish it. You did good grandma! |
The quilt looks so soft and lovely, perfect for a little girl.
|
Another beautiful one! I'm sure she will love it. And your quilting, WOW! Welcome back!
|
Very nice! Love all the quilting, and I was glad you said it was a bit stiff until it gets some launderings. I always wondered about that with the close machine quilting.
I live all the stuff I learn here on the board. :lol: |
