Scalped and requilted!
3 Attachment(s)
I pieced this scrappy top at the beginning of the year, had it about 1/3 of the way quilted and noticed my tension was whacked. I'd used black thread (on black fabric) and I just couldn't see it well enough to frog it, so I ended up scalping it... that was the first time I'd ever resorted to a razor blade!
Then I reloaded it and quilted it, so at long last it's done! This pattern is called "Flower Boxes" by Heather Mulder Peterson. |
It's beautiful now!
|
Wow! Beautiful, definately worth re-working.
|
So beautiful! Sorry for the problems you had with it but it sure was worth it! Great job!
|
Lovely quilt, definately worth the trouble.
|
Beautiful..worth the effort!!!
|
Lovely quilt, your quilting is beautiful.
|
Beautiful quilt. I know from experience how devastating it is to unquilt a top - I am doing that right now, fortunately I had only quilted one row of 9 inch stipple when I found the problem. Your quilt was well worth the extra effort.

You now have a wonderful finish! Well worth the extra work you put into it ...
|
I love it! The black background really makes the colors pop!
|
Fantastic!! Love everything about it!
|
This is definitely a treasure!
|
Beautiful job!
Question: how did you finally quilt it? I have problems seeing the quilting when I'm using matching thread. my stipples start crossing, can't see where the next feather is going to go etc... Any tips would be appreciated. |
Well worth scalping!!! I had not heard that term, but got the picture soon as I read your post. Sure is a beauty!
|
Sounds like a lot of work but it came out lovely. I especially love the way you put it on the fence for the photo.

You did a great job. Very pretty. Worth re-doing. Turned out so good.
|
oh wow.....i love it!!!!

Have you ever used an eye brow shaper. It is a razor cover that his little slits where the thread can slide in but you don't cut your fabric.
The quilt is beautiful. I especially like the floral border and all the plaids. |
great quilt ---got extra love in it
