The Graduation Quilt |
The blocks are hardly sticking to the design wall - Velma (my cat) has figured out how get between the foam board and top.
Yes, one morning most of the blocks were on the floor...
The light center color placement is growing on me. I am planning on quilting some names and dates in the center.
I was able to work in many special fabrics and have purchased the backing. I changed my mind on binding - plenty of time to figure that out.
I just may make my January goal of a completed top...Maybe. If not, there's always next month!
Happy Stitching!
Dawn
Congratulations on completing all of the blocks!
ReplyDeleteThey look fabulous up on your design wall!
Best wishes on your completion goals for this quilt.
Your graduation quilt is so wonderful, the placement of colours looks great! I like your idea of quilting names and dates in the center too. This is going to be such a special quilt.
ReplyDeleteI love the light center too. Good luck with your goal.

ReplyDeleteIt's lovely! Can I ask what the size is? It's hard to tell from the pic. I love the combination of all the different shapes of EPP. Just wonderful!
ReplyDeleteDawn it is going to be a very special quilt. I love the idea of personalizing it with your quilting.
ReplyDeleteI like the lighter center too. All those interesting fabrics have created fabulous blocks. I can't remember if this a surprise or not. Even if the graduate knows about it, he'll be blown over by such a special quilt.
