Sophie's Argyle Quilt
 
3 Attachment(s)
This is a quilt for my granddaughter. She chose the pattern and the fabric herself. The pattern is an enlarged version of Holiday Argyle by Susan Emerson that was found in Fons & Porter's Winter 2014 edition of Easy Quilts. It finished at 74"x91.5". I quilted it on my Tiara with a simple meander (stipple). I'm sorry if the photo is small. I haven't figured out how to upload photos from my MacBook to this site without making them smaller. Thanks for looking. Edit: Sorry for the multiple photos. I need to work on this.

Not sure what just happened but tried to post a comment wouldn't let me. ANy way, your quilt is gorgeous and the colors also.
The way you have it hung is how I have my design wall. Easy to roll up/fold for transport and storage. Once again beautiful quilt.

Very pretty. Obviously talent runs in the family. Perfect color choice pattern and craftsmanship.

Very pretty!

Your granddaughter did a great job picking great colors for a great pattern. Maybe a future quilter?

The easiest way to post pictures using a mac is to email yourself the photos, then use that version to upload. It automatically resizes to the right uploadable size.

AllyStitches 09-13-2015 07:55 AM

This is one of my favorite color combos at the moment! Great work!!

annette1952 09-13-2015 08:02 AM

Awe! Reminds me of cheery and cozy, this is the kind of a quilt that goes with cup of hot cocoa and a good book!

Outstanding, and the color combination is great. I always have to make my pics smaller, and that is something fairly new. I didn't used to have to do that.

Grandma Peg 09-13-2015 06:13 PM

Very nice and your granddaughter did a great job of picking out the fabrics.

GracefulAnn 09-13-2015 06:20 PM

twinkie 09-14-2015 03:49 AM

The photo came out just the right size. Perfect!! The quilt is beautiful. And, your granddaughter has made a great choice in colors for her special quilt.

Wanabee Quiltin 09-14-2015 05:46 AM
