Well i can now check this ufo off my list....i started this back in the spring but after a snide remark by the "friend" i was making it for well i put it away....she bought all the supplies. I got the top all done and showed her to see if she liked it and she says oh its soooo pretty and she loved it....then says i could of done it i just dont want to...well she doesnt even own a sewing maching...my husband said i should of just handed it over to her with the supplies and let her finish it...but i had to see it through...I used warm and natural batting and i love the way its all crinkly and sozy after i washed it....i did have a issue with the quilting silver pencil not coming out...but after soaking all night it got alot better.
i alternated straight line in the cube squares and on the pinwheels i did a small stipple, leaves in the sashing and swirls in the first brown border and loop d loops in the last border i didnt include a picture of the backing bc its a very busy print that she picked out and you cant see any of the quilting Blessings |
Isn't it interesting how easy piecing and quilting are if you don't have a clue as to what you are talking about?!?! It really is a pretty quilt and I admire you for finishing it!
|
I like! I like!
|
This is so very warm and inviting. Bless you for forging on even though there was anguish through it. I am certain your heart has lifted with its completion.

looks very nice and cozy,great job
|
Well I hope she appreciates it! Nice finish!
|
Some people have no clue what they are talking about. I admire you for finishing it.
|
You did a good job on this quilt, it is really great that you decided to go ahead and finish it. I would have been like your hubby, I would have wanted to just hand it back to her and told her to finish it herself. Good for you for finishing it. Lord BLess you.
|
I like the colors you used, very nice.
|
Very nice - she doesn't deserve it. You were a gem to finish it up after that comment.
|
great job-- congrats for finishing it--just make it the first and last-- it would be tempting to hand her a bill for the quilting but i guess not worth the hassel--do somthing just for your self now and enjoy your quilting as you are suposed to
|
I admire you for finishing an unappreciated job. Nice work. You will be blessed for it.
|
Pretty! Love the color combo!!
|
Great job! I like the color combo and the "i love the way its all crinkly", I love how W&N does that.
|
Very pretty!
|
Very nice.... Do you have a longarm? I always want to know, I get so discouraged when I see all the beautiful quilting knowing mine can't hold a candle to them because I don't have a quilter and from what I have been told the prices are will not be able to afford to send one out.

Well she picked up her quilt yesterday and all she said was its pretty....no thank you....oh well at least its done and at its new home and I can move on to the next UFO lol
|
You did the right thing, but I know it was hard. You will be rewarded. Beautiful quilt!
|
Well, I think It's Yummy!!
Bet she will have to make the Next One herself!! LOL |
It looks AMAZING...I can't even imagine the time you put into that since I am new to quilting and have only done tiny quilts. I love way you pieced it, and I can't believe your 'friend' would say something like that. You are quite a friend for finishing it.
|
I probably would have completed it, but it might have taken a little while for me to get to that point. Good job! Blessings for you and her.
