Feeling Blue...

....finishing this quilt was an excercise in discipline....I realise now I don't like piecing small pieces and I'm not keen on some shades of blue....but it's done now and it's not so bad. The quilting is quite simple, mostly straight lines with the odd curve.The pattern came from a quilter's calendar

The back is pieced with the leftovers ..... mainly because the fabric wasn't wide enough!



So that's that one done....on to the other 674 projects that are lurking in the cupboard.

Not bad? Effie I think it's lovely and clearly took a lot of time to finish. I think I know what you mean though. Very often the finished result isn't quite what you had in mind.

Lovely Effie

Know what you mean about projects waiting to be done - I have drawers full.

Must get my finger out and have a go

Lots of triangles to line up, I like your pieced back detail.
