Thanks for you comment! I actually think it's kinda funny. People who don't quilt don't know what it means and i have to explain to them that it's pre-printed fabric. I've been getting all kinds of accolades about my applique abilities on my facebook page and I want you quilters to know right up front it's pre-printed!!!

the quilt is beautiful! not a thing of negativity---cheating---at all |
gorgeous quilt and quilting!!!!

Thanks! I would have never guessed it would turn out this nice. This is one case where the quilting made the quilt. It's a very old and inexpensive fabric but it's very hard to tell even in person that it's a cheater quilt!

Linda, that has to be one of the prettiest cheater fabrics I have ever seen. And now that it is quilted, I would not even consider it a cheater fabric, more like a canvas for you to create on. Very nice.

I'd want to keep that beauty myself too! A wonderful job of quilting that cheater top.

that is the best looking cheater cloth I've ever seen. Love your quilting on it. I think she should share it with you. :)

That is beautiful. I don't care if it's a cheater quilt or not I'd love to make one like it! You did great with the quilting!
|
