I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome!
Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
I started my Lone Star quilt long after everyone else in the western world, and it had several long "holidays" when no progress was made: mostly due to its difficult-to- manoeuvre size.
But it has finally been finished, bound, and had what I refer to as a haircut.
My next problem was finding somewhere to photograph it!
I can promise you wont be the last one to make this quilt cause that will probably be me ;-) I have fabric for two versions: a retro one and a rainbow version. What scares me the most is how to quilt these monsters, but you gave me a good idea. Congratulations on tackling yours!
Nice big quilt. I really like big quilts, they give such a sense of accomplishment!
ReplyDeletewow it looks wonderful ... you just let every one else work out the knots and problems ... THEN you had a go xx
