I had completed the top a couple of years ago but just never got around to quilting and binding it. So here it is, both in progress and completed:
This one will be going along to the craft show that I'm doing next Saturday - any money that we make from anything that we sell there will go into the "Mother of All Road Trips: 2011 Edition" fund. ;) The girls are even starting to get into to and are trying to make some things to sell - not quite sure how that's going to work out, but it'll certainly be interesting!
Now, if I just had a bigger table, I could finish the rest of the ones that I have.....
Beautiful. And satisfying. Quilts are so special.
ReplyDeletePlease don't look at my t-shirt quilt; you would snort.
Even your binding is bling.
Oh Sid, now you know I'm going to have to go look for it! ;) I love the binding - if I can't do anything else on a quilt, just let me do the binding! LOL
ReplyDeleteLove it, Amy...it's beautiful! :) I might have to employ you to make a quilt for this baby girl... :)
ReplyDeleteT, just let me know! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful piece of work. I don't have the patience or attention span to complete something that big much less more than one of them. I hope you get a good price for it to add to your road trip money.

I WANT IT, I WANT IT, I WANT IT. GIGGLE GIGGLE. SO, SO PRETTY. MY MOM MADE A QUILT OR TWO WAY BACK WHEN. THAT IS IF YOU WANTED TO BE WARM IN THE WINTERS. THE ONE QUILT OF HERS THAT I HAD FOR MANY YEARS, THEN GAVE TO MY DAUGHTER, JUST PLAIN WORE OUT. HER MOTHER IN LAW TOOK IT HOME WITH HER AND MADE CHRISTMAS STOCKINGS OUT OF IT. I WAS GIVEN ONE WHICH MADE ME A HAPPY CAMPER. SO ENJOY. SOMEDAY THE KIDS WILL REMEMBER YOU SEWING THEM WITH LOVE. YOUR ONE SUPER MOM.

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!! But how in the heck do we stand a chance to "get it" if it's on a craft table in the next COUNTRY!!! (LOL!!)
ReplyDeleteI would TOTALLY "bid" on this...am doing a blue bedroom. LOVE it..did I say that??
Mare
P.S. Did I see a "price tag" on it anywhere??? hmmm??? Inquiring minds and all...
ReplyDeleteMare, you're so silly! Kansas might seem like a different world, but it's certainly not a different country! LOL I actually haven't set a price on it yet - still thinking about it.
ReplyDeleteAnd it doesn't *have* to go to the craft show. If it were to be sold before then, it could always be shipped to the lucky buyer! ;)
That is cute!! Good luck on your road trip fund!!
ReplyDeletethat's gorgeous! You're very talented - can't wait to see the others as you get them finished. I sew, but I absolutely do not quilt, so I admire anyone who does!
ReplyDeletei am so insanely jealous of your talents. I want one of these for our bed....I thought about trying to make one....but we remember how the sling turned out right?!
ReplyDeleteSmash, you just have to practice! Start out with easy stuff and work your way up!
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone! :)
I'm so impressed! I wish I had the skill (and the patience) for that!
ReplyDeleteAmes, I LOVE IT!!! I loved it when you had just the top done! :) SO awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!! :)
