I've rounded the halfway point for quilting the circles. I still will have sun-rays and the border to do, but the quilt is held together with more quilting than basting. Huzzah!
Most of the remaining circles are full round, rather than 3/4 circles. Lots of designing and stitching in those. I'm trying not to repeat too many patterns, so it's tough to figure out what I want to put on these. Decisions, decisions.
It's hard to not quilt too much. Some circles have unquilted sections - others have everything stitched down. I'm trying to keep it even. I figure if I can go back and add more quilting of it looks too empty.
I'm loving how the back looks all quilted. I need to find a good place to hang this thing when it's done to show the quilting. I miss my back deck railing!
I'm so impressed with your quilting, Sally! It's looking so amazing! You'll have to find a really neat spot for quilty beauty shots when you're all done.
ReplyDeleteIf you have a decent sized backyard, try a long wooden bench with a back as you're new picture spot.
ReplyDeleteYour quilting is looking fantastic, Sally. With all those lovely spots around where you live, you will find the perfect photo shoot location.
