Done, done and finished
I took a picture of the finished quilt from Debi's class last night at the library. It is the biggest quilt I've made and the fastest time to finish.......one month. I'm really happy with the way it turned out and the fabric I used. Now to buy fabric for the back and get it machine quilted.The quilt below is the first quilt made by Bob, Manteca's quilt show chairman this year. I really think he did a good job. He had just picked it up yesterday from being machine quilted and now has to put the binding on so it can be in the show. The quilt is queen sized and will go on his and Judy's bed. He's already collecting fabric for his next quilt and is going to make a quilt shop run around the valley to visit lots of quilt shops....sounds like fun. Of course all us quild members are saving money to spend on the venders at the quilt show.
Your quilt is so pretty. I really like the fabric selection. It just shimmers. You made good time on getting it done so quickly. Were there any quick techniques you could share with us. Bob's quilt is nice too. It looks three dimensional.
I am a quilter. The grandaughter of a dairyman. I was married to a dairyman but am now divorced and have a daughter. I work for a dairy trade group. Love cows and the country life. I was born here in the big valley and have never lived more then 15 miles away from where I was born. I buy way too much fabric, patterns and quilting books, belong to two quilt guilds and will never have enough time to finish all the projects I want to do.
