Heather from "Quiltin like Crazy" and I are having a great swap. She made a gorgeous quilt top from Moda's Swell fabric line that I fell in love with. I asked her if she would mind if I copied her exactly. She had the better idea of swapping it for some quilt fabric. I will be giving her a Jelly Cake from Moda and some April Cornell fabric. Don't tell her, but I think that I got the better end of the deal. Her blog is linked on the left hand side of my blog. Be sure to visit and see the beautiful quilt that I am getting!
Here is the finished quilt top that I worked on early in the week. I love the way it turned out. It was a fun quilt to piece.
Closer up of the borders......I just love that cherry fabric.
Have a great quilty weekend! I am seriously thinking of finishing all my WIP's before I start a new quilt. I think that would be so liberating to have a completely clean slate.

That quilt i lovely!
ReplyDeleteCute, cute quilt...love it!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love it - it's adorable!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is adorable. My son's girlfriend saw it [ she is peeking over my shoulder ] and now she wants something out of that material. She loves cherries.
ReplyDeleteFinish all your WIPs before you start another one? That is an admirable idea. I'm not sure I will even be able to finish all my WIPs before I die -- even if I never start another quilt ever. = ) Your quilts are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYep -- that is a darling quilt. Love the fabric and the pattern. Reminds me of those button candy things I use to get as a kid.
ReplyDeleteWow -- that's some quilt machine. Which manf is this?
Re: the WIPs -- I have the same urge sometimes. So for sure go for it. I have a bigger urge to use up some of this stash - so I decided I should make a goal to do at least one or two projects from the stash every year. I think Sister's Choice use to have "Finish it Friday" or something like that. That seems like a good idea -- applying a time element. Her projects though are like big ones. I don't know how she does it.
Love the quilt and that fabric is so happy. Oh man if I finished all my unfished stuff I'd never be starting anything knew. It would take me forever.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE IT!!!!!! LOVE THE CHERRIES!!!! Isn't Moda the best?:) Very fun! Love to see your work!!!
ReplyDeleteLove this quilt - it really is gorgeous. I'm a big Moda fan too.
