TAJ Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 Here are some photos: The quilt: http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii49/TAJchicks/IMG_2756.jpg With the top turned over to show underside/backing fabric: http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii49/TAJchicks/IMG_2757.jpg The daisy edging alround the quilt - this took 45mins per side for the machine to do and 3 reels of bobbin thread!: http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii49/TAJchicks/IMG_2759.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii49/TAJchicks/IMG_2762.jpg Then the 'underside', with the top edge turned back: http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii49/TAJchicks/IMG_2765.jpg The tricky bit was lining up the backing, so when you do the gutter quilting on the front the small square centre of the backing is in line with it (if that makes sense without seeing it: http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii49/TAJchicks/IMG_2763.jpg So what do you thinK?

Snowy Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Absolutely stunning! Well done - i can't believe you even matched the back to the front - that really would be beyond my capabilities! (and my patience! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 It's gorgeous well done. I just love the colours and pattern and you've made it so well, it lies beautifully. Can't believe you did the daisy stitch all round the edging you must have worn your machine out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks - the machine is fine, but my eyes were not after watching that needle dancing around for hours on end! By hand I will go around a few flowers, etc as and when I have a moment.
