Today I put together two more backs and put one of them on the frame.
I am digging deep into my UFO Quilt Top Box.This one was from maybe 2006 or 2007. I think it is Alex Anderson's pattern. I tried googling her stuff, but I guess it is too old.
I never knew how to quilt it and just didn't feel comfortable with a simple meander on my Husqvarna machine. It is fairly large and square. I made the backing with some pink fabrics that were a dusky shade. Most likely some of my mother's old stash. It will make a nice girly quilt!1
I am going to do some fancy quilting on the house, like clapboard siding and bricks on the chimney. And I think I need some flowers in the window boxes.
And some significant number of thread color changes.
This will be FANCY for me! LOL
You're right, this one is a girly quilt, but the colors keep it from being too girly. I really like your quilting ideas and can't wait to see the finished quilt. If you're a little like me, though, those change color changes will slow you down! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteJust have fun! Planning a trip your way and when it happens, I'll use the rotary cutter. lol
ReplyDeleteHave fun being fancy with it . . .
ReplyDeleteSee you were not suppose to quilt this quilt until now! It will be a great practice piece on trying out some ideas.
