Cornicopia

Yes I am still on a fall making journey!  And not done yet:)   This is the second panel I worked on last week and finished the binding Monday.  This is how the panel looked when I bought it. So pretty isn't it.  But you know what comes next for me...out comes the rotary cutter and I begin chopping it apart;)


Once the squares are all cut to size, they get set aside while I add a solid black border. And then 
I made strip sets of gold, orange and a black with tiny metallic gold specks.  This of course has to equal the size of the small panel squares.   This is a much simpler border treatment than last weeks panel received.  But I think this is still pretty effective. 



For the quilting, straight lines in the gold and orange while the metallic speckled black received some special attention with U turns to set it off even more.  And sticking to my usual interior quilting of a hook swirl finishes this one up nicely I think. 



Keeping this post simple and to the point-another one done.  Onto quilting some table runners today. 


Happy Wednesday everyone!!

  6. Hi Vicki,
    I love how you took that squares off and then offset them in the borders and corners. It looks SO much better, and of course your quilting is spot on fabulous. Happy Thursday! ~smile~ Roseanne

  7. Pretty quilt, Vicki! I'm a bit in a mood for fall today, I think. Must be because of all the school supplies I'm seeing in the stores already! Looking forward to seeing more of your fall goodies!
