My 1st Queen Quilt - quilt pattern is named "Amazing"
 
3 Attachment(s)
This is my first quilt that I quilted on my new 15" mid-arm machine. I FMQ-ed the loops in the strips. It was my 1st attempt to FMQ on an actual quilt.

It is very simple in comparison to those I see on here..but hey...I have to start somewhere. :)

I'm very pleased with how it turned out. It measures 84x84 and has a Warm and Natural batting. I used white thread everywhere except the appliques patches on the borders. I used verigated on them. I regret it though, I think white thread would have looked nicer. However, I'm satisfied with the overall look.

I used my leftover white and scraps to make the pillow cases. I used a pattern called "Burrito" on the web, to make them. It is sometimes called "sausage" pillow cases.

I love the texture you gave this. The colors in the quilt are pretty and the matching pillow cases are the perfect finishing touch.

KathyJ 05-07-2013 05:13 AM

It looks so soft and cool and comforting. Great job on the quilting. Love the color combo. I'm waiting on my new APQS George to arrive so I'll have some of "have-to-start-somewhere" projects too. They say practice makes perfect. Hope mine turn out as nicely as yours did.

mjhaess 05-07-2013 05:28 AM

Great job...Very pretty....

quilter68 05-07-2013 05:32 AM

Beautiful quilt with great fabrics. Just the right amount of quilting IMHO. Some times I see a quilt that can stand up in the corner because they have TOO much quilting. Your quilt looks soft and does drape nicely.

Wanabee Quiltin 05-07-2013 05:46 AM

You did such a great job on this quilt. I am not a fan of green, but this is a fabulous quilt and the pillowslip is perfect.

lkahle 05-07-2013 05:57 AM
