haven't you ever heard---quilting makes the quilt :thumbup:
often a quilt you may wonder what you were thinking will turn out to be quite wonderful once it is quilted :)
yours is such a quilt- quite lovely!

dunster 04-07-2012 01:08 PM

It is beautiful. Quilting always makes a top prettier, even if it's just SITD and invisible. I think being DONE makes it look better too.

patimint 04-07-2012 01:14 PM

It is indeed beautiful. Your quilting is great and I love those deep rich colors.

Yes, definately! Done is better than UFO any day. I like your scrappy quilted or unquilted. Good job and thanks for sharing!

This reminds me of the quilts my granny would make for me and my sisters to drag around to the beach, camping, drive-in, or wherever. I loved my drag around quilt. It went everywhere with me and so many people wanted my quilt. My granny named them 'drag around'. Good memories!

Turned out really good, now aren't you glad you finished this ?

It looks very nice

Pickles 04-07-2012 02:30 PM

Wow I love this quilt it is nice rich warm colors and your quilting really made it pop!!!

quiltingcurious 04-07-2012 02:45 PM

I think it is beautiful. Your arrangement of the jewel tone colors, soft pastels and prints and the gold metallic stitching of large loopy flowers makes it very appealing and ornate-looking.

harvsstuff 04-07-2012 02:53 PM

this is really a very nice quilt. I love all scrappies and I think your fabrics
are just great together. Makes a nice warm quilt .

It looks wonderful!!

momto5 04-07-2012 04:14 PM

Great quilt!

sewbeadit 04-07-2012 11:27 PM

I think random patches make a very nice quilt and your quilting is great.

QM 04-07-2012 11:49 PM

It wasn't bad beffore. You were to self-critical. The quilting really nakes it, however.

AUQuilter 04-08-2012 01:05 AM

Perfect scrappy and the quilting makes it!

Moonglow 04-08-2012 02:01 AM

Nice work. The quilting really makes it look fabulous.

Just Me... 04-08-2012 03:45 AM

Sometimes after I 'lose interest' in a quilt, I will throw an allover design on them and use them as a couch throw. Usually, one of the kids will show up and need one to take home....it's pretty easy to say "Take that one"......and it is loved by someone other than me. :)

Future Quilter 04-08-2012 03:51 AM

I love it.

Lisa Marie 04-08-2012 05:46 AM

I really like it, glad you decided to finish it.

n2scraplvr 04-08-2012 11:40 AM

Yes, the quilting makes it all worthwhile! Beautiful now! :)

joy 04-08-2012 11:42 AM

Quilting is like icing on a cake....

The block that says "snap out of it" says it all. Great quilt, great quilting.

fred singer 04-08-2012 03:46 PM

I think that it is a very lovely quilt.

ranbro 04-09-2012 03:29 AM

I really do like scrappy quilts and yours is great.

east side quilter 04-09-2012 03:34 AM

I made one just like yours for my Gs to take to collage in the fall. I tied mine and every one in my quilt grope loved it.

texaspam 04-09-2012 03:51 AM

I am partial to scrap quilts so I would like it even before it was quilted. Your quilting put it over the top. You should be proud of it.

Lucy90 04-09-2012 04:35 AM

Lovely quilt and I don't think it is ugly. Nice job
