I started this quilt as a practice of enlarging quilt block patterns to see if I could do it correctly, and it the technique I was using worked o.k; needless to say, I need more practice, but most turned out o.k., and since the blocks were all different patterns, they were not exactly the same size, but only off about 1/4 of an inch, so all things considered, I think it went as expected. It was definitely an experience and often a challenge; now to get it quilted...Charisma, can you handle another one right now?

That block is only one that is appliqued...not as good as I wanted it to be, but when loooking from a galloping horse...

Beautiful, you did a great job.

lisalisa 05-26-2011 04:28 PM

that's beautiful. I'm in awe of those of you who can pull these off only using solids. I always hide my mistakes behind the business of the fabric.

good job

:)
