WOW this is gorgeous And thank you for the inspiration- I have almost as much poundage in scraps as I do yardage.

I think that is the term--it means that they are surrounded by white (or whatever color you are using for the background). Actually, I floated the whole top since the border is the same color as the rest of the background--didn't use a colored border, for example...used the same color as the rest of the background--leaves it feeling like it is floating instead of framed.

Its a beautiful quilt top. You did a fabulous job on creating your pattern.

Anoka Quilter 02-01-2014 09:47 AM

That is a beautiful quilt, and as others have said I love the pattern.

I will. One thing I want to do more of is pieced borders and a bargello, an optical illusion quilt, etc. I have plenty of challenges for myself in the works--but I have to be in a certain mood to be willing to tackle some of them.

Challenging yourself was a good idea. And you met the challenge! Good job!

Tis is Beautiful!!! I just got the EQ7 and am trying to learn how to use it. Your design is wonderful, super job of using scraps and design.

Beautiful job! You were the lucky recipient of some gorgeous Moda fabrics. I recognize several of them.

Great job - - - -

This is great! I love the design and the finished quilt is so nice. Good job!

That design would also work well for framing a panel.

Very very nice I love the colors, thanks for sharing. I received a EQ6 for Christmas and am terrified of it, as I am technically challenged. Your quilt looks great.

WOW - you are so creative! I am not sure I would have tackled this…but you sure came up with a winner…This is just lovely!

peaceandjoy 02-01-2014 04:10 PM
