FINALLY!!!

OMG!!  I can hardly believe that this one is finally done!!  I am not going to do the outer row of 4-patch blocks, just can't do any more!!  I need to decide whether to put a slim border of black batik around the outside (jelly roll strips) or just bind it in black.


Now if I can just get my longarm to work right, I'll be set.  The new needles are supposed to be delivered today and I also order one of those bobbin gauges to test the tension.  I still have some work of picking out stitches before I continue on the star quilt though.

    You did a fabulous job! I don't blame you for not wanting to do more piecing on it. I think the narrow black batik border with black binding would finish it nicely.

    Give yourself a big pat on the back & at least TWO 'atta girls'!

    I've been continually awestruck as this quilt's come together and now that it's done, I can hardly keep myself from standing up from my desk chair and actually applauding what I'm seeing on the screen.

    Very, VERY well done.

    It's beautiful! Faceted Jewels is my next project, and I was searching on line for color inspiration when I discovered your blog. I love the richness you achieved with the Cappuccino Balipop -- so clever! It's just the inspiration I needed.

    Thank you all for the nice comments. That others enjoy viewing my work makes me feel warm inside. It has been a long time working on this and months that I just couldn't do any more piecing.
