Last fall I won these gorgeous fat eighth hand dyed fabrics from Vicki Welsh 's blog. I knew I wanted something to hang on my wall of sewing/knitting room. But it took a while to decide. While watching TV one night a couple months ago I caught of glimpse of something like this and an idea was born! I cut 1" strips and laid them out in a pleasing order to me, added some white strips from my stash. Then it just sat around for a while until I came up with a quilting plan and Sunday I put it
on my longarm and quilted it up, bound it yesterday and now I will go hang it on my wall :-) It measures in around 19" square. I used Hobbs white batting which I think is 80/20 and glide thread in a very light silver which looks white on white fabric.
Look at how cool the quilting looks when you look at an angle across the quilt.
I am very pleased with how it came out and how it shows so nicely in the sunlight this morning to snap some pic's! I found it interesting how the quilting on the back looks so different with just a little different angle to the camera.
Linking up with a few linky parties this week that you will find listed on my sidebar.
