It really is a great looking wall hanging! Kudos! Thanks much. It was probably about 5% her work and 95% mine. But, I can't stand letting cut triangles go to waste:> |
I think this is beatiful. I like it just the way it is. I love the colors.

I love the quilt and think the quilting is great. I have seen some of the charity quilts at affairs that have so much quilting in them that they actually look very stiff instead of soft like a quilt should be. Don't get me wrong they are beautiful quilts! They just don't look like the kind you would feel warm and fuzzy under.

I quilted in the ditch and then did a flower on each block in a light blue thread. So, stability isn't a factor, it's sewn enough to be a wallhanging. I'm close to out of the cornflower blue thread, so I'd have to make a special trip to the LQS for more. Do you think I need more quilting or is it done?
I could always add more quilting of course, but I think it's fine as is? I don't want to detract from the flowers. I'm itching to bind it and call it a day..especially since it someone elses colors, fabric pick etc. I'm going to use some of this quilters fabric for the binding. I plan on sending a photo to the niece. I hope she likes it. I've got another quilt from this woman at the sandwiching stage. |
Candace, sometimes less is more, it looks nice just like that and your sashing and borders are a great compliment to the blocks. Enjoy your creation. It's lovely just like it is.

Thanks all. I washed it today and I like how it shrunk up a bit. It adds more personality.

I love the flower quilting and think that and SITD is plenty. Nice quilt! :)
