When I first bought my Handi Quilter 7 years ago, a very good friend went and bought 12 quilt tops. She brought them to me and said to take my time and practice! Well, this is the last one!! Until now I was nowhere ready to quilt this quilt. The county fair starts this week and I am hoping she will put this in! The customer gets this tomorrow. I can't wait to show her. I am convinced she has forgotten that I even had this.

That is soooooooo pretty. I really love continuous curves on Lone Star quilts.

Great quilting! I am jealous of your feathers....someday I will get there too. Do you do quilts to make money? or just for fun?

I quilt for business, plus I am a national educator for Handi Quilter.

Beautiful! The quilting you did is stunning!

CorneliaVa 07-03-2011 05:27 PM

Harriett .... all the "practice" you have put into this art really shows ..... In the last year you have shown other excellent work ..... each time your quuilting presentation gets a little more breath-taking ....

You are a great inspiration ..... I am glad you are reminding us this is not an over-night accomplishment -- that it has taken you seven years to hone this skill ...

So many newbies feel that by the third quilt it should be oh-so-easy and oh-so-perfect .....

Yes, you are a realistic inspiration ...

This is a beautiful piece of work ... thanks for sharing .... :thumbup:

RedGarnet222 07-03-2011 05:31 PM
