Beautiful fabrics for this gorgeous quilt! I just love black or dark navy backgrounds, they make the pattern pop!!!!

That's amazing! I've never seen one I those colors before, and it makes for such a different look!

Very beautiful job.

Just are not enough words to express the lovely colors. But I am a black with any color person. This is so calm, tropical, water-like and just plain beautiful.

Gorgeous. I'd say you're light years ahead of some of us re: free motion!

Very pretty quilt and I like your quilting very much. I am a real fan of Lori Kennedy and her approach to FMQ. I look at her blocg every day-right after looking at this one. I am glad you like your quilt.

It finished up beautifully... I love how your batiks pop against the black. I'm sure a quilt like this would be a love/hate for me too but I'm sure you're happy to have it done! Great job.

This quilt is absolutely beautiful. I am currently working on a double wedding quilt and it is very hard to do this. I am just at the beginning. I am ready to set it aside for awhile and come back to it at intervals I can handle. But, once I get the hang of it, it's hard to stop and have to figure it out again. It's on my bucket list to finish this year. Really great quilting.

My thoughts also - love the sweep of the one color arcs!

I used the Flynn double wedding ring rotary cutting templates which I found on line at a very reasonable price. It has instructions for assembling the rings whether the arc is in one piece or pieced. I found it very easy to use. The piecing is challenging, but when you do so many, you get the idea after a while. I used Elmer's washable glue stick to prepare the curved edges for sewing--that made the sewing a breeze after I got it worked out. I decided I wanted straight edges around the quilt, so I used the templates to cut the side and corner edge pieces as well.

I think the piecing was hard at the beginning, but once I got the gist of it, it wasn't bad.

Mariposa 01-22-2016 02:15 PM

Sew very pretty!

I started one over a year ago but haven't finished it yet. One day it will get done. Maybe when I am retired. Ha. Congratulations on a job well done.
