What a wonderful use of scraps! I love the look of that quilt -- it's "fun". Did you do your own quilting?

roolen 11-14-2009 10:01 AM

Yes, it' s my own quilting. :-)
And I have thought up design of a border. You can read details in my blog - http://roolen.blogspot.com/2009/11/blog-post_14.html
There is a button of the translator Google on the right above.

Bonnie will be impressed by how effective you made her pattern using that dark blue to set off the scrappy blocks.

I especially love your border.

A knockout :!: Are the 2 narrow borders appliqued?

Irish Heart,

I have sewed a cord from a fabric and have sewn it on a border by a decorative machine line.

Roolen,

I love your "Weed Whacker" scrappy quilt! I especially like how you did the border with the cord and decorative stitching. :thumbup: I also really like the meandering quilting on the border.

I went to your blog and looked at your slide show. I watched it three times! You do beautiful work!! Thanks so much for sharing.

That is a fantabulous quilt!! I had to come up with a new adjective...these quilts are amazing and I use the same words over and over!! I think in my spare time (???) I'm going to get to the dictionary and find some new words!
