What I Have Learned!



That Fear Will Get You Nowhere!

Jan made this beautiful black, white and red quilt.

I LOVE IT!

OK--Truth be told.

There was a brief time that I was NOT so in Love with it! 

Reason why:

Blocks are very angular and the others are circles.

On a black and white quilt.

What color thread do you quilt with? 

Black, red or white would have added busyness

to a already busy top.

To add to my fear--the backing is red.

Black or white would have been stark on the red.

I was not sure if my quilting abilities were up to a certain level. 

It would show the slightest imperfection on the red backing.

So I went with the wonderful netural color of

GRAY!

The gray melted into the red and did not take away from the front.

The red backing was perect for this quilt.

My husband found me several times lying under the frame 

peering at the bottom.

This piece of art that Jan made is going to

be a gift for her son.

Jan I hope you like this as much as I liked quilting it.


A reminder that Oct. 1st. is the start date for the Blog Hop

Till We Quilt Again,

Met The Challange!

 This is Jill's beautiful quilt that
 I quilted this week. 

I knew this week was going to be a

 challenge for me to complete it.

Then I saw  

Amy's One Week Challenge. 

And gave it a try!

I Did It!

All the pretty rose colored fabric

 seemed to ask for Big Feathers.

Plus this was a BIG Quilt!

Added a few Swirly Feathers

here and there!

Take a Challenge!

I learned more about blogging,quilting

and time management!

And It was

Fun!

Here is were you can see all the

Projects from this week
