I am showing off a Quilt today that I did not want to bind. But I did it, and I am happy I did it, and I need a reward now 😝😝
This was actually a fun quilt to quilt- I learned so much, even though I thought I already knew it all. It was a very busty girl - it had C and D cups, as well as waves and wiggles, and parts that weren't sewn...
Cotton to a Cotton Poly Blend..
But No Matter!! she is now ALL done, All Quilted, Somewhat flat, only off on one side now - and DONE!! Bound And ready to be shown off for a while!!
( You can read how I acquired her here : Double Wedding Ring)
But it is Friday - you know what Friday is!! Time to show off - Link up !!! Are you getting more things to Finished????
I remember when you showed this quilt before you started quilting. It's challenging to quilt the fullness out of a quilt top but it can be done. It takes some talent and skill, congratulations, you do deserve a reward! Have you decided what yet?
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt! Your brought her to her full glory. Whoever pieced it would probably be amazed. I clicked your link and read about how busty girl came to you and read the comments suggestions about batting/quilting. Did you take any of the suggestions?
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure! I love, love that quilt and the way you quilted it. You resurrected a real beauty.
ReplyDeleteWow!!! What a beauty, Alycia!!! What did you do to flatten it out so nicely? The peachy background is so mod and unusual!! Awesome work quilting this up so beautifully!!!
ReplyDeleteWay to go!
ReplyDeleteAwesome finish. Fabulous quilting. So glad you took on the challenge and your were rewarded with a special finish with an interesting story.
ReplyDeleteYou did a spectacular job on that DWR quilt, Alycia. It's magnificent!
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! What a great job you did on that quilt.
ReplyDeleteYou did a wonderful job; it looks perfect!
ReplyDeleteOh my!!! I love it. I have done a WR in a baby quilt size, not sure I am ready to tackle a large one, but I do love them.
ReplyDeleteYou did it! A challenge is good for you every once in a while! Beautiful!
ReplyDelete"The taming of the quilt" -- and you did a splendid job!!
ReplyDeleteI did a double wedding ring and it's still a top. It is pretty but so big I can't quilt it myself and don't like the idea of someone else doing it,.. sigh
ReplyDeleteyours is done, and over years washing will put it "right" but it doesn't matter. It's beautifully quilted

Wow, your quilting is spectacular! This is a beautiful quilt and I hope you get to keep it.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!! What a challenge!! What a finish!!! I can't imagine all the words uttered quilting through the hills/mountains and valleys. It is beautiful and ready to be loved and used. Life can't get better than that!
ReplyDeleteYou really did wave your magic wand a lot on this project and made it sing in the end!
ReplyDeleteWell Done! I do really like the pink background!
ReplyDeleteYou did fabulous job of quilting. Congratulations. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is gorgeous but with the quilting, it is sublime! WOW! What a talented girl you are and dedicated too. How many hours spend on this one? Regardless, they were worth it because you have one of the most beautiful DWR quilt I've ever seen. Congrats! ;^) P.S. I'm saving it in my Pinterest pages.
ReplyDeleteYour quilting is beautiful on this quilt!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job quilting a challenging project. It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI had missed your earlier post from when you got this quilt, but just got done reading that. I'm blown away by how beautifully this turned out! Your quilting on it is absolutely fantastic, especially considering that it wasn't even close to laying flat before quilting.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cool quilt and the quilting works so well with it. Definitely worth all the effort to finish it.
