I am so pleased with it. It isn't my best effort but it is so pretty that all the 'labor' pains of it so to speak are done and forgotten.
In the previous rants I've had about this quilt, you may recall I mentioned that I purchased most of the fabric as a 'kit' from a local quilt shop in Chamberlain, South Dakota. Chamberlain is literally in the middle of the state which pretty much amounts to the middle of no where. Seriously!
I pulled in a few more purples and some greens as I was putting this together as I discovered I didn't have quite enough fabrics to make this in a usable size, which is the size I like to make. I like using a decorative stitch to tack down the binding. I used variegated thread to quilt and also on the decorative stitch as well. I mean, why not?
Isn't the sparkle in the fabrics fun? I tried to make each flower look more like a flower with the quilting on the petals. In the center I decided to make a bunch of tiny circles so it looked like a flower center. What do you think? Does it?
I also made bubbles on the borders. Bubbles are fun to quilt!
While I enjoyed making this quilt, I am glad I'm done with it and am moving onto more garments and quilts!
Thanks for reading!
