Well, I have been quilting like a fool this week (when current events would let me!). So here are the last two quilts I needed to finish before our neighborhood Garage Sale in June.
The frog quilt was the worst experience. I got it all set up on the frame and ready to quilt with my Bailey, got three bobbins wound, and now can't find the darn bobbin holder to put the bobbin into the machine. Those darn Gremlins! Anyway, I took it off and FMQ on my Pfaff. And I think it turned out great! This was how it was meant to be quilted, I guess! Hopefully the bobbin case will show up sometime soon. The flowered quilt came out so ugly that I was determined to "fix" it. So I appliqued those big bright yellow flowers on it. Sure looks better now! Thanks for looking and for letting me vent! LastGrandma I call this Frog Frenzy -- the quilting makes the frogs look 3-D [ATTACH=CONFIG]197312[/ATTACH] Quilting closeup [ATTACH=CONFIG]197313[/ATTACH] Alternated quilting direction on each block -- you can almost see the 3-D! [ATTACH=CONFIG]197314[/ATTACH] Don't really have a name for this one. The piecing is called Freaking Easy Quilt. Probably looks better all in one color, did not like it plain!

I love the flower one. Both are so cute.

Those are both darling quilt. All those little frogs are so cute. I love the daisy quilt. Those flowers are the perfect touch. Great job on both and thanks for sharing.
|

i love those big happy daisies. You did a stupendous job on both of them but the second one is my pick.

The flower one is my favorite! It turned out very pretty and you are very creative! Beautiful quilting job too! Quilt on!
|

dar |
Nice quilts..love the flower one :)
|
Call it "Daisies Gone Wild"
|
Gorgeous flower quilt and a cute frog quilt. Your pieced background makes the flowers pop. A solid background would have washed out the flowers, IMHO
|
Great quilts. Love the flowers.
|
Your are right about the frogs almost looking 3-D. Wonderful job. Love what you did with the second quilt too.

Awesome save with the big yellow flowers! Great job. I probably would have added something, too.
|
Thank you for sharing. They both look great. The flower quilt is so unusual. It looks wonderful
|
Really like the addition of the flowers. I like the jumping froggy quilt, too.
|
Ditto for me, those flowers were really a great idea.
|
both are nice love the flower one
|
You can't find the bobbin case? Seems someone on this forum a day or so ago lost hers. Her DH and she hunted and went through garbage cans again and again. Finally she found it.
IN THE MACHINE!!! She'd put it back absentmindedly and forgot about it. |
Great work! I love the flowers!

Nice job!! Gotta love those frogs!
|
Both are terriffic! The flowers pop!
|
Both quilts are great! Cute yellow flowers too!
|
Love the huge flowers! Frogs are cute, too!
|
you may think that the one with flowers is ugly but it is the best before the flowers and after. good job...
|
Great quilts! The little frogs are lovely and your huge flowers are so nice and bright!

Just gotta love those flowers. What a great idea for a "fix". Nothing blah about that quilt now.
|
Love the feet peeking out from the quilt!
|
I like the flower one and I like the scrappy background it makes the quilt more interesting
|
You did right by the flower quilt - good eye to see how to complete it when you were not happy with the initial look. :wink: :lol:
|
Congrats on a couple of well done quilts! I like what you did with the flower one! The frogs are cute too.
:thumbup: |
Love them both.
|
Love the frog fabric! Great quilts. :D
|
The daisies are a perfect touch! Great job.
