Finished

Progress....and now its finally finished (and just in the nick of time)

I really enjoyed turning my white stash into hand dyes...there's something really rewarding about creating your own design and using your own hand dyes.
The colours still don't show up in my pics as true to life, each time I post they look completely different.
Sometimes I think that in order to be a quilter you need to be a professional photographer and computer technician as well. I still fiddle with my camera settings, and I STILL havent designed a quilt on my EQ6 software, even though I've had it for years. Sometimes I fiddle around and print out frames, but I always end up just drawing my designs by hand. This can be very frustrating, especially as all this new software is supposed to make life easier and quicker...I guess I'm just stuck in my ways.
Finally finished, but the week is not over yet. I have that Friendship Group Quilt to Quilt tomorrow!

  1. Oh, it is beautiful. I had EQ5 once. I designed a couple of quilts but I would rather be in the sewing room than sit a computer.

  6. Your quilt is really lovely, beautiful colours.
    Such a shame you don't use your quilting software, maybe you could do a class on it to get going.
    I have seen the program on line and it looks amazing - another thing on my wish list LOL
    But looking at your lovely quilts I don't think you need it. Thanks for sharing your quilts and I am enjoying your Red Delicious quilt BOM.
    Merry Christmas
