I am excited to
say that the final borders are all on the floral pinwheel top. It measures 103” square. Because of its size, I can only lay it out
at home folded in half so here it is.
I have not yet found a backing I want but think I may have
to piece the backing. I also plan to
talk with a longarm quilter. I have
quilted several queen size quilts on my home machine, but I don’t think I want
to tackle one this large. A friend
kindly offered her longarm machine for my use; however, I have never used it
before and don’t want to wait for practice time. I want the appliqué border custom quilted to echo the appliqué
and then perhaps quilt the outline of the leaf and vine in the open white
area. I am very happy with the top and
can’t wait to see it after it is quilted.
That is a wonderful quilt...how long did it take you to make??? It is soooooooooooo pretty!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I started piecing the pinwheel blocks on March 3rd and I have taken time to also work on several other projects along the way. I am anxious to have it quilted.
