It's a beautiful quilt! Amazing what those stacked 4-patches can do. And I agree that bordering them really made the blocks pop!
|
I can see it was a lot of work and it is beautiful !!
|
Really great - isn't it amazing what one fabric can produce??
|
Sorry it was hard to follow, but it came out fabulous! You chose beautiful fabrics and did a super job on it.
|
LOVE YOUR COLORS

Oh my gosh, this quilt is absolutely beautiful. I don't know if I would be brave enough to tackle that job. You are my hero!! Love to see the original fabric

Oh, my I had no idea so many folks had commented on my post. Thank you for all the lovely comments. The fabric is by South Sea Imports (website posted on pg. 3). I think the blocks prior to the border(s) was 4". I added a wide yellow border to the whole quilt. The yellow border had the yellow sunflowers also. This quilt was made for my DH's aunt, in her 80's. She loves sunflowers and has been such a huge help to any/everyone who ever needed it. She lives in Texas so the quilt was mailed to her last week. I hope she loves it! She is a wonderfully, sweet lady who has recently been ill and unable to sew. And I had her in mind from the very beginning of this quilt. She does not know that she is receiving a quilt today.
Yes, it was pricey to make-but such a learning adventure. I will make another one. without the double borders. Oh, yeah I had help in picking the fabric for the borders. My nice helpful LQS owner did that for me. Thanks again, you all are so kind. I will try to be more observant of my topics. I hate when someone will post and then leave town. ha |
Wow! What a beautiful quilt. Thanks for sharing.
|
I hope we get to see a picture of her and the quilt, it is so beautiful...
|
beautiful.
|

|
Looks great! Each block looks like a framed picture. I want to try this one day. I already have some material I think will work.
|
Beautiful!
|
If those double frames with cornerstones is a mistake, well, that's a durn good mistake to make! Your results are stunning, be proud!
|
It is stupendously stunning. Breath taking.
|

|
Just beautiful! What is the pattern, may I ask?
|
Beautiful!
