"Love the Dove"
1 Attachment(s)
Our President's Challenge this year was to make a quilt with an animal on it. I found the dove applique pattern on Nancy Zieman's blog. It was shared with her by Stephanie Kepecs and Joanne Perlmutter of devoutquilter.com
http://www.nancyzieman.com/blog/quil...love-the-dove/ The scrappy border is made using 2.5" squares from a swap here on Quilting Board. They are 1" x 2" flying geese sewn end to end. I lost count of how many different fabrics that I used. There were alot! I like the scrappyness of it. |
Beautiful! Really like everything about this, the scrappiness, the quilting, the FG border (wow 1 x 2 are tiny!) and the design. I also love how you put it on a dark background so all those beautiful colors and fabrics practically glow.
|
It's gorgeous! I love the theme, the colors on the black, and just everything about it. Nice work!
|
Very nice!
|
beautifully done
|
Beautiful job. The colors just pop with that dark background.
|
Lovely! Really like your fabric choices for the dove.
|
Oh, I love everything about that dove. It's also a nice reminder of how colors just love to be surrounded by black.
I just went to the link and in my humble opinion, I prefer yours. |
I "love the dove" too! I am in agreement with the others...everything about your quilt is perfection :-)
|
love it, it reminds me of stained glass, very pretty job.
|
wow....that is a beauty. and I love the boarder....how clever.
|
What a beautiful piece! I love your colour choices and how they pop against the black background. And I especially love the sentiment (peace) considering what seems to be so prevalent in our daily news. A job well done in my opinion.
|
Beautiful quilt! Easy to love this dove. Your color selection is wonderful.
|
That is sooooo beautiful!!! Fabulous work!
|
Exceptionally beautiful.
|
Love it. The scrappiness just adds a wonderful dimension to it.
|
Ditto to what has been said. Super. Love your border. Wonderful dove. BrendaK
|
Beautiful. Looks hard to make!
|
Lovely dove!
|
Absolutely gorgeous. The black really makes the Dove standout. Great work.
|
I love your dove!
|
Awesome quilt!
|
Beautifully done!

That is simply beautiful!!! At age 75, my dh is building a 14' fiberglass steeple for our church. It will have 2 stained glass pieces in it that measures 18" x 24". The interior of the steeple will be lighted. The reason I am telling you this is after seeing your Dove, I am inspired to try to do a quilt piece using the Dove my dh did in stained glass as my pattern. Do you think this is doable?
