I finished quilting this the other day...a big, loose meander. I put the final hand stitches in the binding last night after 1:00 a.m. Maybe 1:30.
I am going to show a couple more shots before washing...
If not for that block that has the sun in it, and then it is used as a cornerstone, this quilt would have been titled 'They Only Come Out at Night'....but I did not think of that before I put the sun in...and still consider naming it that.
I have not made a label for it and I know I should, but I so would like to just get it sent to the child it is for.
The two shots below are after washing and drying. I had meant to measure to see how much it shrank but totally forgot.
It did not alter the looks of it all that much.
It is sooooo soft and cuddly....is that how you spell cuddly? You know what I mean I am sure. The backing is flannel.
It has taken me long enough to get it done...but I am happy with the results....remember to click to expand the view.
It is absolutely gorgeous! I would think Lorelei would really want one!
ReplyDeleteI love it and the flannel back was a great idea. Very cute!
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful and no doubt will become a priceless treasure.
ReplyDeleteIt turned out really cute. I'm terrible about naming or even labeling my quilts.
ReplyDeleteI love it and this is the right time of year to get it to the child. I am sure he will be happy to get a cuddly quilt. it looks perfect to me
ReplyDeleteIt is a work of art and I know it will be treasured.

ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful. You should go ahead and name it that. I love that it has a flannel back. Sounds so soft and warm.
ReplyDeleteIt looks lovely, and I only wish I could meander as well as you do. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is really beautiful, Rose. I hope the child you made it for is still a child. LOL Just joking.
ReplyDeleteI scrolled through the posts I missed. As for the cookies my too are always different shapes. I had a girlfriend that always made perfect circles of cookies.
