It was so much fun making this patriotic panel into a wall quilt. I played around with a couple different layouts for borders on it in EQ8 before settling on this one. Friendship stars plus red, white, and blue stripes.
I was so in love with how it came together that I told my hubby that if it didn't sell I would be okay with keeping it. I listed it on Saturday and it sold on Monday!
The lady bought it to give to her brother who is a Vietnam Vet. I am honored.
See it looked pretty good on the wall in our living room;)
I had a great blue and white fabric for the backing. I have a different patriotic panel that I plan to work on this week yet. Might even get started today since I don't have to cook tonight, hubby is taking me out for dinner, I think Texas Road House.
Linking with Wednesday Wait Loss and perhaps some parties on Friday too;)
The layout you decided on looks sharp! The proportions are perfect for the panel and it’s a beautiful finish.
ReplyDeleteOh that is SO pretty! How big did it turn out? That is a beautiful panel, the blue in it is stunning. And I love those friendship stars on it. How sweet that it is going to a vet. :)
