I really like this quilt. You fabric choice was perfect. I like the way you quilted it as well. I haven't tried machine quilting yet, working up the courage and am paying attention to the details of photos. Yours was very lovely.

Thank you Jitterbug. I try to see the quilting as well. I am still working on my FMQ skills but it has been a long road to get there. Here is a closer up picture of some of the quilting[ATTACH=CONFIG]458233[/ATTACH]

Awesome quilt!

My sense of humor said to me....Where is the mouse! Maybe he is on the back with the ID. A beautiful quilt of soothing colors.

Yooper32 01-24-2014 06:00 AM

What a novel quilt pattern. I love it and the fabrics you chose to do it in too, perfect.

oldcatlady 01-24-2014 06:42 AM

That is a really lovely quilt. Those are my colors and I love the design. I just machine quilted my 1st quilt-baby quilt. I did just straight lines. I haven't mastered curves yet plus the throat area on my machine is very short and limits the size I can work with. Your quilting is very pretty and I love the variegated thread you used :)

Beautiful!!!

"Thank you Jitterbug. I try to see the quilting as well. I am still working on my FMQ skills but it has been a long road to get there. Here is a closer up picture of some of the quilting"..........sorry couldn't get the quote function to work this morning,copy/pasted. Thanks for the close up. It helps me even more, and yes I love the look of variegated thread. I've used it in my crocheting, and look forward to it in a quilt. You mentioned long road to get there, well...I am still working on the long road of mine to courage to plunge in and just do the trying. I'm getting there much closer now, so thank you again for sharing.

I like the pattern. Is it called Mouse Trap because you can wander around from block to block through the gaps in the black sashing? Ingenious. Like the colours you have used as well. Thanks for sharing.

Mariposa 01-24-2014 08:46 AM

Pretty quilt! Great fabrics, and quilting too!

AnnT 01-25-2014 04:44 AM

Great looking quilt! I'm sure they'll enjoy it.

Ditto that!!

cpcarolyn 01-25-2014 06:39 AM

Great quilt.

trolleystation 01-25-2014 06:51 AM

Well done!!! I like that quilt pattern because there is no matching of the sashing strips, which is the biggest pain in my neck when making a sashed quilt.

Vera39760 01-25-2014 07:50 AM

Nice colors. Like it.

bigsister63 01-25-2014 07:58 AM

Cute!!! It is "a mazing". Can get lost in the pattern! Good Job!!!!!
