Shakespeare is done. The top at least, and I'm totally loving it. I have a love affair going with Judy Martin patterns. They are so clearly written, and so easy to follow. And she has some unique rotary cutting methods that end up saving fabric. I can't recommend her books and patterns enough. I have been following the blog
Amylouwho for a little while now. Every Friday she hosts a Friday Finish. Up till now I haven't had anything that was finished in time to post in this group. I think Shakespeare is a good place to start. If you go over to her site, you'll see other finishes. The fun part is that they aren't all quilting finishes, but a variety of sewing projects, including the cutest little girl dresses.
Absolutely stunning!
ReplyDeleteOh my! Snail trail is one of my all time favourite patterns and this takes it into the next dimension! It's just glorious! Congratulations on your finish, and thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletelove this quilt! it's so eye catching and the colors you've chosen are magnificant!
ReplyDeletegreat Friday Finish!
The subtleness of the gold stars paired with the boldness if the red stars ... this is truly a lovely piece. I love the feeling of finishing a quilt. I'm finishing an entire quilt tonight, all I have to do is stitch the label to it when I get home from work - when the label's on it, I consider it finished. I'm going to see about posting it on my blog this evening. Warning ... there are 3,370 pieces in the quilt top alone.
ReplyDeleteWow! Great work on this quilt! The pattern looks so hard.
ReplyDeleteYay, Cathy!!! It's marvelous -- congratulations!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteShakespeare is an excellent place to start! What a gorgeous quilt! Very cool pattern.
ReplyDeleteI've got a Judy Martin book on Log Cabins and I'm itching to try one of her patterns. :-)
Your quilt top is beautiful. I love snail tails! They are so tricky to look at, but simple to make. You colors are very dynamic and eye-catching. Nice work!
