    Default White and Bright Solids

    This quilt has a name which I have long since forgotten because I traded the magazine the pattern is in for fabric! Oops. I finish the top close to 2 years ago and never quilted it because it's 110 X 120. I never was able the sandwich it nicely. Finally, I decided done was better than perfect so I just did it. It has flaws. Many flaws, but it is not a UFO.

    By the time I meandered in the colored parts I decided I hated to meander. Each white section is done in a different motif from Leah Day's 365 days of FMQ project. Some are better than others, but it was great practice. The border is freehand "circles" because I couldn't think up any more great ideas that were even close to my skill set.

    The whole quilt is done on my Brother 1500S.

    I like it! It reminds me of Burgoyne Surrounded which is one of my favorite "classic" patterns. Quilting looks great! Congrats on the finish of a UFO!

    It's always better to be done than to be a UFO, and your quilt is just gorgeous.
