My first king size quilt, shams, & pillow
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have finally finished my first king-sized. I started piecing a block-a-month 2 years ago and completed it in July and just got it back from the LAQ. I pieced and quilted the shams and pillow this week. We are keeping it for our bed.

You did a beautiful job on your quilt! You should be proud--that is a huge project. The shams and matching pillow are perfect.

Excellent color choices. :thumbup:

That is beautiful. Keep saying I am going to make one for my bed but it is always after I finish the current projects. Then something else always comes along. One of these days!

Wow....Amazing how striking the patterns look when you see them in the monochromatic colors....This is really a great quilt set !!

tessagin 08-25-2014 05:38 AM

Wow! I really like this! Is this a sampler you came up with or you found/ purchased the pattern. Would like something like this for my son!

Jackie Spencer 08-25-2014 05:49 AM

You have made a really good looking quilt. I'd keep it for myself too.

Beautiful! I love to make shams also! Love your colors. On my king sized I make 3 shams to fit all the way across the bed.

Mariah 08-25-2014 07:31 AM

Love it! Maybe your method of getting something of this size done will inspire me to greater accomplishments! I am hoping cooler weather and less interruptions help also!

Very Nice. Must feel good to have it finished. BrendaK

Thanks. I went to Oregonpatchworks.com and joined the members only club for free. They have a block of the month series. Many of the patterns for the blocks are from the 2010 series and some from 2011 and the rest I found at various places as I needed 4-color blocks with a rectangle or diamond of blue in the center of each block. I made up the sashing and the shams and pillow patterns. You will notice that shams do not match--my choice.
