So new year, new goals, and a new FINISH.

It is about 0 outside, so no photos there. Plus our pretty snow melted.
Close up of the Dresden blocks made from some 80ish Thimbleberries fabrics I was going for as many as I could. It is a stash quilt except for the back. The pattern was an Edyta Sitar single pattern with two templates for the Dresden block. The pointy fingers were actually dimensional, but I didn't know how it would quilt, so I appliqued them down.

Here is the quilting in the bordering blocks: ( going with a sunflower theme)

And here is some traditional feathering:

And lastly a back and front show. The backing was an extra wide Kim Diehl.
You can't really see the quilting it is so busy.

I just need a label and rod pocket for entering out quilt show in March.
Absolutely Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous finish!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! A gorgeous finish! So many hours of work in this quilt!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful! I still love the Thimbleberries 80s fabrics. In fact, I'm having a hard time giving them up in my quilts. Just a lovely setting for the quilt. Congratulations on your finish!
ReplyDeleteI confess,I have actually been acquiring more of them online. I just love the rich colors. I am not a modern style girl. Oh, and I am a Nonnie, too.
DeleteSo pretty! I used to love Thimbleberries a bunch, still kinda do.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful finish! The traditional fabrics are so pretty in their rich tones, the quilting is gorgeous, and its story of lost and found pieces tickles my fancy, as I keep hoping some much-loved lost pieces of my own will show up one day. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful. Congratulations on getting it finished. You should take an award at your show in March.
ReplyDeleteLove it!
