54" x 72"
Originally, I was going to quilt it in a diagonal grid pattern, but at the last minute I changed my mind and decided to stipple it. I'm so glad that I did! I had my fill of straight line quilting after the square dance quilt. (I know, imagine that!)
I pieced the back using red gingham and worked in the two blocks that I received after I had put the front together. Isn't that a fun back?
I'd like to say thank you to each of the lovely ladies that made a square and contributed to my quilt! I'm so very pleased with the results. You can click here and here to see the block credits.
Very nice! There are some great blocks there.
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely quilt, amandajean! I love red and white together. Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteThis is such a striking quilt! Very well done to all the ladies - and yourself of course.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for your mention of the ProFlowers incident earlier this week. My son had used ProFlowers when he sent me a bouquet for Mother's Day. I mentioned to him what you (and several of your commenters) had found. When he checked his bill, he too had been "enrolled." He called customer service and got it straightened out.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the PSA!!
It looks great CrazyMom! I'm usually a bit wary of crazy quilts, but I really like them when they're done in similar colors!
ReplyDeleteI think this is so lovely! I love the modern twist to all the blocks.

ReplyDeleteI am amazed at your output of quilts. You inspired me to finally quilt a top I had made a couple of years ago. I stippled it all over, and it turned out great, I was very pleasantly surprised. Now I need to quilt the rest of the tops I have lying around.

ReplyDeleteHi just found your blog and have read almost every post. I love your quilts you are very talented. I've just made a baby quilt for a friend and I'm going to attempt to quilt it myself. I took classes about a year ago but never got around to quilting so now I will try I hope it's easy. Saw your video you make it look very easy. I'll be back to see your next quilt finished. Take care Carol
ReplyDeletei love it. i keep wanting to get in on one of these virtual bees but i always find them once they are started.. hmm... one day .. and i love how you put the blocks on the back... i would have made a bag or a pillow.. that's always my first solution... but i like yours better!
