Loved doing this one, too, though I have to say that quilting cotton is more satisfying that quilting flanelette... I look forward to quilting my unfinished cotton quilts :)
Nonetheless, this is another quilt that turned out to my liking. I got to experiment with my first disappearing 9 patch, got to use the cute owl print (of which I have very little left now) and one of my friends will have a lap quilt in the near future.
I was "uncreative" on this one and just did stippling, but I like it for the wavy 3D effect it gives the quilt. Did paralell lines again for the border (top and bottom).
(haha, what luck that I happened to photograph a section of the quilt where all the points are lined up nicely :)And here's where all the lovely owl print ended up...
Beautiful, I think my next quilt has to be a disappearing 9 patch!
ReplyDeleteOh gee I love this quilt. It's very happy and when you give it to your friend,she will love it each time she uses it, she will remember you.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure what disappearing 9 patch means, but I am doing a nine patch soon too.
I love lap quilts!
I forgot to say that I just love stippling. It always looks so good when washed up.
ReplyDeleteHi Nanci,
ReplyDeleteI didn't know what the "disappearing" in D9Patch means, either, but one of my teachers from the class I took last fall explained it to me: basically, you're starting out with a nine patch, but then you cut it in 4 quarters and scramble them up, so when you put them back together, the 9 patch disappeared.. at least that's my understanding :)
Cheers,
Christine
Well done Christine!! I love that owl fabric!!
