I started this about a year or so ago, made from scraps of other projects. When starting this project my main machine took a dump, switched to another and it to pooped out. So finally a third machine finished this baby. I just kept pushing it aside for other things. The echos on the border is what really turned me off, even though I like how it looks, the time is just...UGG! No pattern, just winging it here. I must say I dont like doing vines. Not real happy with how the back looks but it'll just have to do.

Your quilt is gorgeous! Your borders and vines look wonderful on your quilt! Great job!

Very, very pretty! I love vines! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
|
That is really pretty. I love the vines!
|
Wow! Very pretty quilt!

I think you quilt is lovely. Why not quilt around the flowers and the vine so that they stand out on the back. You could do it by hand, using a stabbing stitch, then you could whip stitch over the individual stitches on the back so that it looks like a continuous line of thread. I did this on my 'Trip around the world quilt' and it worked out well. It means that you can use the quilt on the reverse too.
Lovely work :thumbup: |
WOWZA! That's gorgeous! Awesome work there!

I have to say - I just love your style. If that is the correct term :) You inspired my Pink Ribon quilt for my MIL (which was a huge success - she has it as her avatar on Facebook!)and each quilt you make looks just great. Very very nice!

If you are looking for a machine that will last, take a look at the vintage Singers. A Singer 15-91 or 15-90 will last and parts are easy to order off of the internet. The Singer 15s are excellent for free motion quilting too!. If you need help, there are numerous folks here that have vintage Singers. We chat on the Vintage Sewing Machine thread. |
