is done!
It was a challenge because I was working outside my normal color palette. I ended up editing out the peach because it just wasn't working for me. I like how it turned out.
I will be gone from the blog for a few days. My father in law's wake is tonight, the funeral is tomorrow. My mother in law turns 70 on Sunday and my husband's birthday is on Monday. I think I will be posting week 9 of the quilt a long on Tuesday. I'm tired just thinking of it all.
Hope you all have a great weekend.
beautiful quilt. Good luck this weekend.

ReplyDeleteIs this quilt made out of flannel?
If not, when it ravels down how does it keep from coming off the quilt?
It looks absolutely lovely!

Wow! That was fast on the quilt -- I love it! Good call on the deletion of the peach -- that would have been too reminiscent of 80's colors. I hope you have a peaceful weekend with family.

ReplyDeleteTake care....love the whole concept of this quilt...
ReplyDeleteHugs to you and your family, Amandajean. You and yours are in my thoughts.

By the way...I know the quilt along has been going for some time...but I think I will start with block one and see what I can accomplish. I think it would help me get my skills back.
