BeBe – queen size quilt

My apologies for the bad photos. I can’t seem to find a room that is both big enough and bright enough to get a good photo.

I had Friday off so I spent the last 3 days sewing and quilting – very relaxing despite my bad cold.

the back…

This is my first queen size quilt. As I was wrestling to move it into position for each line of quilting, I kept referring to it as a behemoth and dubbed the quilt ‘beautiful behemoth’ (bebe for short). It really is beautiful. I love how it turned it and I learned a lot on this project. I’m not in hurry to do another large one anytime soon, but I will not fear the next big quilt.

  1. I totally agree with Ashley BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

    I am so glad to see you are posting again. I had almost given up on visiting here but I am glad the great spirits lead me here today. I think of you so often and wonder how you are. I miss all your inspiring work. Keep creating dear one.

    Love and hugs,

  2. If you gave Fluffy a haircut he/she would look like my Shakespeare. They have almost the same markings!
