My "We've Got The Blues" quilt
#186
Eddie, Love the quilt. At first glance, I said to myself - I've done that quilt - it's Confetti, the quilt from Hell!
You see, I made 3 of them, but I wasn't satisfied on making it according to the directions, no I wanted a baby quilt and the directions either didn't give that size or did, but I didn't want that size. So, anyway, away I went and started cutting & sewing. Everything went together so well until I hit the pieced border!!! Never mind that the whole thing is on the bias, no problem, right? Big problem - I had a dickens of a time figuring out the border between the center & pieced border. I ended up making the top & bottom borders one dinemsion and the side ones another dimension. Finally got it together. Two were given away & the 3rd one is in a closet needing to be wuilted & bound, even has the binding with it!
