This is the quilt that I was so upset over because my FMQ was sew bad!  Thank goodness the BIG stitches around the vine saves it…:o)

Yup…I’m actually liking this quilt…Come on work with me…focus on those big stitches!!

BUT over all, I’m loving my scrappy garden!

Now… I think I will paint the coffee table a burnt red colour…and I’ll start looking for a new throw rug and of course new pillows!!

  1. I do love it! I love scrappy and I love 9-patch! I have a scrappy "Gone to Texas" quilt that I use in our RV. Do you go RVing a lot? We love it and usually go to Oregon with it in May because our oldest son lives there and we love it there.

  2. It's a beauty! You did a great job. Encourages me to start using the leader-ender 9-patches I've been making for every so long. I'll add that to my loooooong bucket list. (smile)

  6. Love your new quilt. And don't be so hard on yourself about your quilting.. It looks fine to me.

    Isn't it funny tho how something new can lead to more things new - red table, etc. LOL

  7. Very pretty, P. Of course I "am" partial to the 9-patch...

    Tell me, what thread do you use for your big stitches? is it Perle Cotton and if so, what gauge? Curious minds need to know these things.

  9. It looks wonderful, Paulette, and I'm sure it will be very cheerful in the RV. The mix of quilting stitches increases the appeal, I think! Great job. :D
