My Largest Finish To Date !
 
So for the past few weeks I have been sharing with you the progress of my current project. The one that allowed me to overcome my fear of feathers ! Well it is now ALMOST finished. It still needs a binding, but other than that, she is done !


It was not until I started putting my quilted blocks together that I realized just HOW large this quilt was ! It finishes out at 90 x 105 ! That is HUGE ! It is by far the largest quilt I have done to date. I am extremely proud of myself on this one, not just because of the feathering ( though that alone is awesome to me ) but the very fact that I was able to complete this quilt on my Brother PQ-1500 is spectacular !


So here she is. I was unable to get pictures of it on MY bed ( two twin size beds shoved together ), since Hubs has been in it all day due to not feeling well, so I took pics on my grandmothers bed ( she has a full / double ), which is much smaller then ours ! So you will have to try and picture it ALL spread out until tomorrow !



This is the right half of side A ( right of the white strip ) .
This quilt does not have a traditional ” front ” and ” back ” . The layout for this quilt allowed me to make it a Two-Fer. This means that I can flip it over and it looks ( almost ) the same on the back as it does the front !


This is the left side of side A. ( left of the white strip ).


Left half of Side B ( left of the white strip ).


This is the right half of Side B ( right of the white strip )


Close up of the white strip ! Feathers, Feathers EVERYWHERE !


I REALLY like feathers now !


Some more random shots taken in my sewing room tonight. There is NO place for me to spread this entirely out except the bed !


I REALLY love this quilt !


Really do !

Good work. I'd guess you are now totally over your fear of feathers.

Whoa . That's huge and amazing. And more feathers than a family reunion of geese! LOL Congrats on overcoming your fear and --really--you did this on a Brother 1500? That boggles my mind.

I love your quilting, and quilt! I have a Brother 1500, and I haven't had any of my quilting turn out remotely as nice as yours.
Do you have yours on a frame?
Great job!

This is my machine set up. I used to have it on a frame, but got extremely frustrated at the lack of quilting area with the smaller throat ( about 4 inches once you start rolling it up ) so I ditched the frame and have been VERY happy that I did !
