Southwest Shadows
 

This has been in the making for a year or so (don't remember...seems like forever). I got the info on how to make the "Illusion Quilt" from Missouri Star Quilt and just kept adding to it until I got it the size I wanted 96 x 126 (I think that is what it ended up being)

The back took longer than the front because I kept running out of fabric going to buy more only to find out what I wanted was sold out, so I had to just keep adding to the back. Thought I had figured out enough fabric for the boarder and got to the end only to discovery it was 2 /12" short....Goodness what a learning experience this quilt has been for me as I have not been trying to quilt for a few years.

I am just so Happy this quilt turned out so Good, and that it is done. It was quilted by J. Williams (Roswell,NM) she did a Beautiful job, Thank you Jaackie!!!

Thank You for looking and hope you like this quilt as much as I do!!!

OH I love that. back too!! i made a shadow top and sewed one row on upside down. ripped and fixed. but it is still a top. i love your's because of all the lovely fabrics you used. :D

I love the Illusion pattern and you did a great job with yours! I like that your backing makes for a fully reversible quilt too.

Just love the pattern and your colors.....

Beautiful quilt! It might have been a test of patience, but was well worth it....

Looks good.

Very nice!

My illusions quilt pattern is very different from yours.

Your quilt is beautiful.

wow....I love the front and the back. Nice job!

Just beautiful....well done despite the obstacles.

I really like that quilt and the backing too; gotta love MSQC. Jenny makes things look SO easy.

Great job. A winner for sure. And, your back if almost as pretty as the front. Great creative thinking on your part. With all those challenges, your next quilt is sure to go a bit smoother.

Loving this quilt
