La Pass Squared
 
2 Attachment(s)
I have squared the La Pass and am working on the borders. I have decided to put them on by hand. I had a hard time trimming it up but it is done. I did not EPP. I marked 1/4" seam and sewed it together.

That is stunning!

Lovely! Maybe you can use your trimmed pieces appliquéd on the border.

You did an excellent job with putting enough lights in this quilt to make it beautiful and well balance without having it be overly busy.

Amazing work! This is one I would never even think of beginning. Congratulations on a great finish.

Fantastic planning of design! I have seen several of these posted and I salute all of you quilters who do this quilt. But this is the first one I have seen where the fabric was arranged so you could see circles. That is just ingenious. I could be mistaken, but it even looks like a couple of the larger circles were made to look ringed with flowers. This is a true prize winner we are looking at.

Beautiful! I'm still debating with myself whether to square mine up or appliqué the rosettes onto the border.

Incredible job! And the fact that you didn't use EPP is amazing!

Beautiful!! I'm working on one but I am going to appliqué the edges to border pieces instead of trimming. Hope it turns out as good as yours.

Really beautiful! I love these quilts but I'm not brave enough yet to try one. Well done!

sinceresissy 07-20-2016 04:00 AM

Thanks everyone for the good words. I enjoyed making it but I hated to trim it up. Since I had lots of little pointy triangles around the edge I decided I didn't want to try and appliqué it onto a border. I am in the process of adding a one inch red border and then a five inch black border. I made a mistake in cutting the black border yesterday and I am trying to decide what to do. I don't have enough of the material to make a whole new strip. I cut 46 instead of 48. The other three strips are cut accurately. I just may have to go shopping and buy a whole different black. Ha!
