An update... Still working on this puppy!! Last night I sewed the border on one side! Woohoo! Took me about an hour it seems.... I wanted to make sure it lays well, so I measured the quilt, then cut the borders. Matched the center of the border with the center of the side, pinned. Then pinned each end, and after that I just kept finding the center between the pins until they were about 4" apart. This, from someone who rarely pins...and this first side is 100" long!!! Whew! I'm hoping to get the other 3 sides sewn tonight so I can take the top for Show & Tell at my Guild meeting tomorrow night. The approximate finished size will be 100" X 120"! Oh! We found the PERFECT backing fabric for it!! We went to the Fabric Patch (Local quilt shop) & were looking at the WIDE backing fabrics. Decided that one of the tone on tone creams would be the best. Since the design is very graphic, we were happy to see on that seemed to be blocks of vertical & horizontal lines :D Then, when we pulled it off the shelf to actually LOOK at it---it was words: "Love" "Prosperity" "Happiness" "Health" etc!! Now I ask you, how much more perfect could we find for a wedding quilt??!!! :!: :!: :!: :D :D :D :D :D I'm hoping to get a good picture of it tomorrow night when it gets held up at guild, so then can post a new one on Friday. :D |
Perfect backing for a wonderful quilt!
|
Wow--you did find the perfect backing fabric.
I cannot wait to see the top with the borders on too!!! Hurry, hurry!! |

The quilt top got a great reception at Guild last night! Unfortunately, I still couldn't quite get the whole quilt in the picture! You can sort of see part of the border though....and this was with it being held up on the stage, hanging down over the edge in front! The colors look a bit faded out from the flash, but you get the idea.
Now to get this baby layered & back under the walking foot! LOL . The infamous wedding quilt! [ATTACH=CONFIG]31792[/ATTACH] |
