Since making this quilt, life has been busy; every day a scramble to the finish, flopping into bed at the wee hours of the morning, just to turn around and snooze the blaring alarm after only a few hours have elapsed. Time for another day of waking the kids up, getting them off to school, and heading to work.
This is the LAST quilt top I have made. Or been a part of making. I really sewed a border on 6 other quilts. The part of this I actually designed and sewed is the center block up to the medium green first border. This quilt is big enough for a king size bed! Imagine doing a king size round robin. NUTS! But the quilt tops all turned out great!
I am ready to get back into quilting, and am making efforts to do so, I was so passionate about quilting. Unfortunately, the rigors of work and kids just took its toll and took over my existence. I am ready for quilt therapy to return to my world.
I love to quilt but you're right sometimes it is so hard to find time. ......the last quilt you've made but oh what a quilt. This is just gorgeous. I love your colors....
ReplyDeleteThanks Serena, but it's been sooooo long!
ReplyDeleteThis quilt is fabulous, the green and orange.......DELICIOUS!
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning quilt. I totally understand the demands of work and family. It is nice to know that your fabric will still be there when you feel inpired to create. I find that some time at the machine helps me recover from a long busy day.
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible quilt! Beautifully done and the colors are amazing!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful and intricate quilt. I wouldn't even attempt something so intense and exacting. Great job.

Wow, that is beautiful! I hope you are able to get back to quilting, but it is hard when you have kids. I didn't get much done quilt-wise when mine were young, but I'm going crazy now that the nest is empty!
