Wonderful job :thumbup: One of my faverite patterns, and my fav color. You can never have too much blue fabric in your stash. :lol:

The border really sets the top off, it's very pretty and looks like you did a great job on the FM.

mysacrifice 01-21-2010 07:48 AM

Card trick is one of my faves. I like the colors you used ... looks very dimensional. And I LOVE the border. Good job all around!

pennyswings 01-22-2010 10:10 AM

Very nice job!!! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-gen014.gifI taught myself to do free motion quilting too, as it is way to expensive for me to send my quilts out to a quilter.
Now please show us a picture of the new ken quilter with a 12 foot table your DH brought you.

rosalyne 01-22-2010 03:49 PM

sandpat 01-22-2010 03:53 PM

Great job with your quilting and I love the quilt design too!

peaceandjoy 01-22-2010 04:03 PM

Wow, great job! Nice work, all the way around - from colors to piecing to quilting. You should be proud, that's a great gift back for his.

BTW, your name caught my eye. Drove through Buffalo last week and saw billboards for Amigone funeral homes. A name that works...

Debra Mc 01-22-2010 07:25 PM

:thumbup: good job

MaryAnna 01-24-2010 09:00 AM

Just fabulous! You did a wonderful job! Did you have any 'birdnests' on the back? how do you stop that from happening? I know there is a drop in washer that is suppose to help, but that's only for bobbins in the case and not drop in bobbins. Which is what I have. Tips would be greatly appreciated!
Kind Regards,
MaryAnna

That's pretty darn good for a first time! And such a large project. You should have a proud smile right now!

Great Job I am going to have to give it a try :)

Great job. Love the quilt and the quilting. The border is amazing. LOVE IT!!!!!

rylie 12-02-2010 05:58 AM

I absolutely love your quilt. So much so that I copied it to my folder. I plan to make a quilt for my bedroom. I hope you do not mind, but I have been searching for the perfect pattern. Nothing flowery (even though I love flowers) for our bedroom. I am trying to learn FM, but have not gotten the hang of it yet.

rylie 12-02-2010 06:00 AM

P.S. I grew up in East Tennessee

BizzieLizzie 12-02-2010 06:08 AM

It is lovely! Well done for trying free motion quilting. I have tried it and I know that it is tricky. You have certainly set yourself right up there with the experts! :thumbup:

Wow is that ever a beautiful quilt. You have done an wonderful job. Wish I was that good. I am still trying to make things keep their shape when I iron and so I am still working out many bugs so to speak.
I have been quilting for about 3 years so I have much to learn.

Keep up the awesome job.
