she did a great job!! i like the fabric choices and colors...
you can click the pictures for a bigger, better view.
now, i think JN quilts are gorgeous!! but (there's always a but) from a LA quilting perspective they are a pain to design custom work for!! although they look symmetrical, they are in fact, not really...the points of the geese don't touch, makes it hard to 'travel' the stitching motifs from one patchwork piece to another...
but with all that said, when i'm done- it really is a beautiful finished quilt...
Meet Petal (i picked the name!! great name for a dog, huh? :) ) she's a 1.5 year old basset hound mix. someone dumped her close to my neighborhood. found her huddled on my front porch covered in mud and fleas and smelling like dead fish. After a bath and vaccinations, she looks like a new dog. she is a sweet little lap dog that loves belly rubs!!
i'm fostering her til she finds a (responsible) forever home.
and no- that's not here with me....she'd be a perfect fit into our 'pack', but three dogs is a bit much...i told her she showed up too early....

Shannon - forgive my ignorance but what is a JN quilt? The quilting is amazing BTW! I am a novice LA quilter and I often come to look to get inspiration.

P.S. How are you going to resist that face?
I love that you are giving Petal a great home while the search for a forever home ensues...she looks very sweet.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job Glacier Star quilting design...especially how you handled the center star.
I just love how you quilted this, particular the arcs off the points of the inner feathered star. Very prettily done. :D
ReplyDeleteThat is one amazing quilt
ReplyDeletebarney sent me an email and told me that he wants petal to be his sister.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilting!~!
ReplyDeleteI love the quilting on this one--I had forgotten about the "wandering ribbons" and I need to try them.
ReplyDeletePetal is a sweetie. Love that face, but who can't love a basset hound, even if it's a mix. Great quilt too!
ReplyDeleteThat's some beautiful quilting! I'm also thinking that Petal has other plans. She looks quite comfy right where she is!
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt! And Petal has such a sweet little face. How could anyone not want her?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt and your quilting as always looks perfect on it! Petal's is just so cute and how sweet of you to take her in and clean her up......so many strays....that is how we got our 3 cats and that is enough too. Good luck finding her a wonderful home!
