Quilt in Progress
September 2011
Here’s a peek at the quilt I’m working on these days:
And, here it is coming together on the design wall:
This quilt is such a happy quilt. I’m so enjoying working with it–which hasn’t been often enough since I’ve been so busy processing harvest food.
The fabrics are all Kaffe Fasset prints, which I love. And though it can seem jumbled a bit at this stage, I’ve seen it made up, and I really like it. I bought the kit from Marge at Maine-ly Sewing in Nobleboro, Maine. She sells online too: http://mainelysewing.com/
It’s on Lucy the long-arm now, being quilted with lime green thread, which is looking quite pretty, and with a “sweet pea” pantograph. The backing is a lime green print I got on sale at Quilt Diva’s in Rockland. It has a linear print of leaves whose panels were QUITE hard to line up properly in order to get the right width.
I haven’t decided what to name it yet. Happy Quilt isn’t quite right. Layer cake isn’t either. It will come to me…
