I had no idea what they were from, until I searched my blog. They were from a Color challenge - in 2011 I think.... So I started playing with the coins. And this is what I came up with.
Are you ready for picture overload? I Quilted it, and decided ( again) I like the quilt better upside down....
So - I really didn't have an idea of how I wanted to quilt it.
I had it one the frame and thought - well - a circle will look good there.
And then I kept going.
it was really a LOT of Fun
I would like to point out -
It is quilted - and bound - and has a hanging Sleeve.
Were you surprised - that I - Alycia - bound a quilt?
I know... I was too!
Congratulations on the found blocks and on the amazing quilting and binding!!!!
ReplyDeleteReally great quilting.
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic! Great job turning those orphan blocks into something beautiful. Your quilting is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI prefer it upside down too. Your quilting in the circle is really interesting. I'm keeping that for future ideas.
ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised... and I love the quilting. It is inspired! Looks like "joy" and "enjoyed" would look. Another amazing quilt, Alycia. Thanks for sharing.
