Too large for my dsm!
1 Attachment(s)
I made this quilt from strips that we got on a shop hop three or four years ago. Each shop gave you a 2 1/2 inch wof strips from 2 different Gradient fabrics by Blank. I purchased a couple of yards of my favorites and cut strips from them. Then cut strips from a solid black I had. After sewing the strips, cutting to length, and resewing, I ended up with a 96 by 116 quilt. I knew it was too large for my dsm and have 3 quilts at my long armer right now, so I went to a lqs and rented their machine for a day! It was a hard 7 hours of sewing, but it is all done by me. (The long arming will never win any prizes!) Whee! What a quilt!

Wow, what a quilt!!! rented a machine, you did wonders. did you take classes before though on using one? i doubt very much if i could jump in and do such good work. great Quilt!!

Beautiful colors, love the colorful thread on the quilting

Third trip to the long arm machine. It is fun but I will never be as good on it as my professional long armer. I also love using my dsm for smaller quilts. I have a 120 by 120 in progress and it will go to her!

Gorgeous quilt and quilting!

The quilt is beautiful ~ I love all the bright colors and you did an excellent job of quilting it!

Your quilting is very good for it only being your third time
|
The thread you chose for quilting is perfect with those lucious colors in your blocks. Nice job.
