Having examples of the various patterns done in the same fabrics makes a nice composition.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17008155356923332277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6224040476243998010.post-46041095691496305512008-05-23T20:23:00.000-04:002008-05-23T20:23:00.000-04:00Absolutely beautiful!!!SusanAbsolutely beautiful!!!<BR/>SusanSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11360047123820906113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6224040476243998010.post-71235955603112880722008-05-23T18:48:00.000-04:002008-05-23T18:48:00.000-04:00Great job!

I do think it makes it seem more like an authentic quilt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6224040476243998010.post-74380619077904292982008-05-23T12:57:00.000-04:002008-05-23T12:57:00.000-04:00Kara,I really can't say how long it has taken me a...Kara,<BR/>I really can't say how long it has taken me as I've had it set aside for awhile and have just pulled it back out to work on it- the Elm Creek Quilt novels re-inspired me. Also, some of the blocks are machine stitched. (Though all the blocks can be hand stitched.)My machine is currently broken so the rest of my blocks will be handstitched. It is good work to do in the evening when I finally get to sit down and relax. I'm not worried about how long it takes me as I have no deadline. I will say, unless you are a master quilter who churns out prolific work, quilts take time.Cyndi Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05794693752183307243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6224040476243998010.post-58011735957957835532008-05-23T12:44:00.000-04:002008-05-23T12:44:00.000-04:00Very beautiful!!!

You're handstitching, right?Kara S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11820990333568650565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6224040476243998010.post-62646538100965156592008-05-23T12:06:00.000-04:002008-05-23T12:06:00.000-04:00Your quilt blocks are beautiful and I love the col...Your quilt blocks are beautiful and I love the colors. Quilts bring fond memories of my childhood. Grandma and Mom both made them and Mom still does. She will be 81 in September and sews continually. She has a quilt made for everyone in the family except the twins who are only a few weeks old. She is working on those ones now.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your beautiful talent.<BR/>Blessings,<BR/>MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08175754179624182953noreply@blogger.com
