    Default My Last UFO Finish for the Month Black and White Modern

    First of all, many thanks to those who helped me decide on the quilting for this one. Please disregard the spilling over laundry basket! I'm not sure what size it is - it's shown in the center of a king sized bed.

    In this image, I photoshopped the perspective to try to get it straight.

    This is the top band. I followed the angle of the tumblers and then quilted across.

    The center band is made up of "ghost tumbers" in gray.
    The bottom band is made of randomly sized scraps of the black and white. Quilting echoes them.

    Here's the back. I need to snip a couple of runaway thread ends.

    And the binding. I chose a black and white kanji print by Alexander Henry

    Thanks Lynnie! Goodness, I've come a long way since I first started out here on QB -- and that's due to everyone's support and suggestions.

    I've never seen tumblers done in black and white. Very cool!
