    Default Imperfect Circles
    This one took me almost a year to do. It's now hanging above our King size bed to give you an idea of size. It took me 8 spools of thread and hundreds of hours (literally? I don't know, but it felt like it!). I did all of the quilting on my Bernina 830E and I used Ikea sheets for the front and back. Quilt police, put your badges away;> There is a quilt in the Modern Quilt book by Weeks Ringle that just grabbed me and I wanted it, so here it is.

    How cool! I'm surprised it only took 8 spools of thread!

    I like it. You did great on the quilting and I can see why it took forever to finish.
