The Dining Table Has Been Cleared - Another Top Sewn Together

WARNING PICTURE HEAVY POST FEEL FREE TO SCROLL

Firstly a disclaimer, I normally edit all pics before uploading to the blog but flash computer is having a brain fart and I don't know how to edit on this laptop so I'm just running with what I have.......the quilt holder will be mortified, but I'm pretty sure I can bet the house he wouldn't be caught dead reading my blog.....


As you can see from the sky a beautiful day but still windy so it took a few goes to get a semi decent picture....can you feel the agony that he's going through.....mwahaha...teenagers are so tortured sometimes ;)

Hahaha just for my amusement....my quilt has feet!
 Aaaah that's better
I am really in love with this quilt and I'm not sure exactly why? It just makes me smile
Couple more then we're done
It's off to the longarmer as I wanted to put a white Chenille bedspread on the back and Lady Muck probably would pack a spaz if I forced such un ladylike bulk under her.
I did say white...but...I let the boys choose the backing since they said the quilt  was "cool", high praise from the grunters, and therefore deserved a bright coloured backing.....it's bright, trust me...I'll show you when it comes back......

      Thankyou Sam...it's still a chenille bedspread but it's definitely not white, this was a really fun one too make and not taxing on the brain.Always a bonus :)

      It was a toss up between even quieter background fabrics and mostly black plusses but that was too somber and required more thought too get the contrast right...not the right time for that style.
      Thankyou for popping in and saying Hi, it was nice to see you :)
