This quilt has been a long time coming, but it is finally done. I started it at a workshop over two years ago with Kathy Doughty from Material Obsession. It has been a pondering quilt. I have worked on it off and on, with lots of thinking time in between sewing to figure out what to do next.
The curves are quilted with curvy organic quilting--the narrow one is quilted with turquoise thread.
I matched the binding to the background fabric and the adjacent wedges.
While I was taking pictures in my yard this morning, I noticed this decorative grass seed head...
a bit different isn't it - reminds me of the shape of a snake :)
ReplyDeleteWow, well done! The binding detail really looks good, and you did a great job on the quilting. The grid looks great, was it easy to do? I think you may have sold me some of that green Kaffe, too!
ReplyDeleteGotta love this clear sunshine we're having. It sure makes the quilts pop!
It's gorgeous! I love the quilting, and how you did the binding is so cool!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a great finish!
It's gorgeous!!! Congrats on a wonderful finish!
ReplyDeleteGail it is fantastic (in every way)! The background, the quilting (both straight line and organic), the binding detail! I love it!
ReplyDeleteWell doing the matching binding really paid off! Marvelous!
ReplyDeleteSo nice to see this finished. I remember you starting it in that fun workshop! The binding treatment is very thoughtful and adds a nice touch to an organic quilt. Really nice job!

ReplyDeleteWow this quilt is amazing in every way! LOVE IT! :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic finish! And I love the way you matched up the binding so that the wedges appear to cross the edge - congratulations!
ReplyDeleteI feel like I'm looking at a Candyland game board. This is very pretty and quite unusual.
ReplyDeleteI like the background as it is made from so many fabrics.
ReplyDeleteI love everything about this quilt....well done!
ReplyDeleteI hope you put it in a place where you can see it all the time. It would be a shame to hide it away in a bedroom or on a closet shelf.
