I loved making the first squedge topper so much that I had to make 3 more! Actually the one I showed on Tuesday on this post was my second one.Here is my first one I made and what I learned. I had purchased this Christmas FQ bundle on Craftsy last week and wow is their service fast! Anyway I was so anxious to get going on this topper, I quickly picked out which FQ's I would use and cut and sewed and when I put the topper together I couldn't see enough contrast between the strips and I was pretty disappointed. So I set it aside and made that fall one, I learned using more contrast is a good thing!
So here is the third one I made from the same FQ bundle but picking with more contrast in mind. I like it much better.
And then I thought I would experiment with using a whole piece of fabric instead of piecing strips for that squedge, I like it too! Would do you think? It looks really different doesn't it! Which is your favorite?
Thanks for stopping by today-I appreciate all your visits and comments.
Linking up with My quilt Infatuation, Fabric Frenzy and Stitch by Stitch-links are on the side bar. I'm heading over to check out some fabric goodness!
Beautiful work Vicki and wow are those neat fabrics! As soon as I finish a few things I have to pull out my squedge rulers!
ReplyDeleteThey're all completely stunning! Your feathers look gorgeous, and although I also prefer the high contrast one, the one with all the reds has a subtle shimmer to it as well. I think the last one is my favorite. I would love to make a whole quilt with this design.
ReplyDeleteThey're all so pretty and your quilting is amazing as usual! I like the last one the best I think...maybe because of the simplicity?
ReplyDeleteThey're all great, and your quilting shows them off beautifully. I like the first one for its subtlety, the second for its contrast and the third for its simplicity - there, wasn't that helpful?
ReplyDeleteI just love that pattern and would love to know where you got it from, if that's possible. I think I really like the last one. Very striking. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThese are very pretty! Amazing quilting!
ReplyDeleteVery nice and great quilting! That last one is great for Thanksgiving :)
ReplyDeleteYour quilting is what really makes these sing, but my favorite is the Christmas one with the greater contrast.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty.
ReplyDeleteHello Vicki,
ReplyDeleteIt is always interesting seeing variations of the same pattern. My favourite colours are the second one, and favourite quilting the third one.
Would you like to join in the linky on my blog, Free Motion Mavericks? It would be lovely to see you there.
Love from England, Muv
