Poppy Quiltby ~CyberSunbeam

Artisan Crafts / Textiles / Quilting

Finally! I've been trying to get this done for nearly 2 months now. It's been in the quilting stage for weeks. I've had to put in a lot of extra hours at work lately, and just haven't had much time to finish it. But it's done now! I'm SO relieved.

Based on my poppy quilt pattern here: [link]

Done in 3 shades of red, a shade of orange, a shade of black and a pretty paisley background. The backing of the quilt is red and yellow rectangles, but I didn't feel like taking a picture because there's not much to see.

Machine pieced and hand quilted with a nice wave pattern (thanks to my wonderful new quilt frame).

Total finished dimensions are 71" x 71". It's wide enough to be considered "full" sized, but not quite long enough.

Not sure what I'm going to do with it.

Awww, that's so cute! You're so talented!

Thanks so much. Of all the quilts I've done, I'm the most proud of the outcome.

You are amazing and an inspiration. Now I really want to make a quilt, but I'm equally afraid of the sewing machine. Maybe if I wore steel gloves...

Or, I could just design quilts at random and never actually MAKE them... >_>

Don't be afraid of the machine. I'm the biggest klutz in the world and haven't managed to sew my fingers together yet. I've been whacked by the knob that holds the needle in, but never injured by the needle. I guess I'd better knock on some wood now... There's always hand-sewing too.

Or, you could just read my last journal entry...

Hey! You finished it! It looks great.

Thanks.

One down and fourteen to go?.... Well, at least it's one down.
