Elle, it's incredibly beautifull. I love it.

wilhelmina 07-28-2010 12:20 PM

Elle,

I love it, how long did it take? :)

Butterflyspain 07-28-2010 01:06 PM

Meredith, its been on the go for a long time, so that I canīt officially say as I had some life problems along the way and it was shelved for some time.

It was on the back burner for at least 8 months, so say 1 year on and off.Just tried out that 505 spray and its so good and easy to apply I thought I was going to have problems. Now I have to wait on my backing fabric. Its on its way now though.

OH gosh Elle....it takes my breath away and leaves me speechless...and you KNOW how incredible that feat is!!! You better hide that one for sure when Terri heads over there...maybe under the dog bed.. :shock:

Anicra, If you look at Quiltworx.com which is Judy Neimeyer design site you will see some wonderful quilts, some already made and some designs you can buy.

Love your quilt. The fabrics are beautiful. What a work of aret.

alaskasunshine 07-30-2010 06:48 AM

I remember you posting a while back and it is awesome to see what you have come up with! :-D :shock: It is just stunning and we still want to see it when you get it quilted. I guess we just can't get enought of that gorgeous quilt!!! Job very well done. Pat yourself on the back! :thumbup:

tlrnhi 07-30-2010 07:06 AM

Elle, it's beautiful! Where on earth did you get some of that fabric? lol :)
No worries about me stealing. That one is yours. As much as it is beautiful and all, that pattern is just not me, so you get to keep this one. Well...unless, I see it in person and change my mind! lmao

Butterflyspain 07-30-2010 07:13 AM

Hi Terri, well I should have told everyone of course that without your help this would not have come to be. Terri donated me a huge box of beautiful Asian fabrics and I saw this quilt and it was just perfect for it.

LOL I am so glad this quilt is just not you LOL hooray I get to keep this one, she always wants to pinch my quilts.

Elle

tlrnhi 07-30-2010 07:17 AM

Elle, I couldn't resist sending you the fabric when you said you were making it out of Asian prints. I KNEW there was a reason I was saving so much of it. :)
I think you did a spectacular job on it.
Now, when I get there, I might change my mind. I might fall madly in love with it and would have to go find another suitcase to put it in. lol

I do have a box that I"m putting together for you again, but this one will be hand delivered to you. :)

Well? How do you think I'm going to pinch your quilts? I'm going to get you busy digging thru the box, then while you aren't looking, I can pinch them lol

It is gorgeous! You do such marvelous work. One day i hope to be as good.

Moncia 07-30-2010 12:20 PM

Fantastic! Fantastic! Fantastic!!!

Butterflyspain 07-30-2010 01:57 PM

Terri, I might have guessed you had an alternate plan in mind, you are a little minx for quilts arenīt you.



Still waiting on some fabric I ordered for the back and I am getting impatient, want to get it done, its going to be shown at our local quilt guild show, not for prizes or anything, just showing all the work our group does during the year and raising some money doing a raffle with a quilt for the orphans here in Spain.

Rusty's Mama 07-30-2010 04:08 PM

Your quilt is very beautiful.

Kitsie 07-30-2010 04:36 PM

incredibly beautiful colors! Congratulations!

sandpat 07-30-2010 04:37 PM

Elle...you do have those "professionally trained quilt guard dogs" don't you??? They'll keep an eye on Terri while you dig through the new box.. :lol: :lol:

Friendly Quilter 07-30-2010 04:42 PM

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! LOVE THE COLORS. THE QUILTING SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THE BUMP.

tlrnhi 07-30-2010 05:20 PM

I wouldn't do that to you, Elle!
I'd just take you to the little place down the street, ply you with some wine and tapas, THEN swipe the quilts. Actually wouldn't have to swipe them. Maybe if I got you liquored up enough, you'd just say...oh yes, it's yours! lmao!!!

Great quilt!

Sheree from Chicago 07-30-2010 09:18 PM

I just finished piecing this quilt also. Yours turned out very beautiful. I used batiks so it looks very different from Judy Neimeyer's and yours. I'll post a pic when done. Your fabrics are beautiful!
