Beautiful quilt and I love the colors. You did a great job FMQ on your machine. Do you have a wide throat area on your machine and wat was the quilts dimensions?

I just love it....so beautiful, and well done. Did you use about a 3" width cut on the prints. Great way to use scraps, yet elegant.

Beautiful. Just what I want to make my Grandson in Michigan. I have that line of fabric too!

Sooo very pretty. I really like the elegant simplicity of it. I think your quilting looks authentic...professional.

Love the colors, beautiful. I wish I was that brave to do the machine quilting.

I would say the approximate measurements on the quilt were 48" wide by 57" tall and that is just guessing, I am 5'2" and it covers me from chin over the toes when I am laying on the couch!

My machine does not have a wide throat, I used the fluff and stuff method that I saw on a video from a quilt teacher named Paula Reid.

I actually used a Kansas Troubles Jelly roll, I cut each strip into 5" sections and then pieced it together, then I bought Kansas troubles yardage for the sashing in between and top, and binding was another Kansas troubles fabric I had in my stash! It was a fast and easy quilt. Next time I will sew all the jelly roll strips together first and then cut into 5" wide sections, it would have went together so much faster then! But I had fun regardless and I got to practice machine quilting
