I love your lighthouse quilt. The embroidery is beautiful and the fabrics you used are perfect. Nice job.

Looks like a lot of work. Your fabric is amazing.

The sashing, border frames the lighthouses so well. They are not overwhelm. Great stitching!

So pretty! I love lighthouses.

I don't know where you found that seacoast background fabric, but you couldn't have found anything better for those oh-so-neat lighthouses.

jenOSU 07-28-2015 07:09 AM

Gorgeous lighthouses! I have the border fabric and still haven't done much with it :(

I've collected lighthouse material for some 15 years and that was in my stash so I have no idea. Back then it probably would have been JoAnn's or maybe (but I doubt it) Hobby Lobby. I had just enough. :-)

Not really. Did all the embroidery while watching TV. It went together easily after that. :-)

Thanks. And thanks for all the kind words from everyone. It was fun and really didn't take a lot of time.

I love light houses and have painted several. I have a painting of one done by my DH's aunt of one here in Texas in my home now. I love your quilt, you did a wonderful job. It is beautiful.
