"I Love Cherry Pie" (aka Flowering Snowball in Cherry Themed Fabrics and cherry pie colors) is now a flimsy. And, oooops...I made it way bigger than I thought it was going to be. It measures about 99 x 110 - King-sized, not Queen-sized. So, now the backing I had planned will have to be pieced, I will have to buy a King-sized batting or piece some scraps on to the Queen-sized one I bought.
I'm going to big stitch hand quilt it with red perle #8. I don't know when...it seems to be cool these days but will get warm soon and I don't have air conditioning at home.
And it's kind of weird how random sewing sometimes ends up kind of un- random looking. I don't have a design wall so I just pretty much grabbed and sewed.
Partying at:
Great, great quilt!! Fun fabrics, great colors and design!! Love this quilt.
ReplyDeleteI love Cherry Pie, too, specifically that quilt! As a matter of fact, you just keep making quilts that make me want to grab and hug them...
ReplyDeleteSuper sweet, super YUMMY! Need me a piece of that cherry pie! As a fellow cherry obsessed quilter I must say you have some cherry fabrics I've not seen. Lovely quilt. Can't wait to see it after you throw on some whip topping(stitches).
ReplyDeleteI love it--great way to use your cherry prints!
ReplyDeletehow fun...nice and bright. turned out great. micki@2dogsstudio.us
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful quilt top. I love seeing all the blocks and then presto, change-o...it's all sewn together with a whole new personality.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful - reminds me of a stained glass window.
ReplyDeleteI love the finished top! Wonderful color distribution and with the sunlight coming through it, even better!
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt su much. Lovely colors and fabrics!!! A beauty!!
ReplyDeleteLove the darker areas in the quilt. It's a fabulous quilt!
ReplyDeleteAnother beauty you really get them done! Love your use of color in this one!
ReplyDeleteI just subscribed to your blog and I am so glad that I did so. I love your taste in color and patterns! I'm not quite at your level of skill but I'm pushing myself.
ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot! You made it bigger than you intended. By the time I have pieced about half a quilt I am so over it, I usually end up making is smaller than intended. Its looking great there, and has a lovely secondary circle design.
ReplyDeleteLove!!!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely wonderful ...
I love the energy of this quilt! I am going to have to do something scrappy with red backgrounds. Quilts like yours are so inspirational!
ReplyDeleteI tend to LOVE all your quilts, your style is so great! I wish we could sew together! I know we would have fun!
