Machine quilting this morning.
Three of the blocks have now had the 'filling' on the outer edges quilted and are complete....and one side of the border is completed. I am slowly sewing round the actual design on the border fabric.
This is all taking heaps of time, frequent stops...and a huge amount of silk.

I will never show the back of this quilt, as it is a learning curve with many differnt threads.
The silk is working best at present so I am going to go with that...but as I run out of colours - the back coloured thread is changing.
The right hand border is finished and I have three more to go. I will alternate between hand sewing and machine quilting for a bit..Getting too side-tracked.
The strange thing is that when I look at these photos I can see parts I have missed!!
Back to my sewing now.
wow..looks gorgeous

Joan - this is gorgeous!!! What learning curve? Your quilting is exquisite!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are good! The way you matched the miter borders is good, very good .... I know how hard that must have been! The air would have been a tad blue if I ever tried to do that.
