On Park City Girls blog she was asking everyone what there favorite part of quilting was. Mine definitely is the binding! It's the finishing touch, and my mother n law gave me these fancy (expensive) pins and they are wonderful to use, I will never go back to the cheepies again.
And I love it when the corners turn out perfect!Here is a close up of the stippling, this is my first quilt that I quilted on a long arm machine!
My mother n' law just bought a long arm quilting frame and I get to use it. We have been learning together.
The back is pretty plain jane...
And here is the overall pattern, It's a disappearing nine patch...the easiest layout ever!
Thanks for looking. And don't miss out on the other projects....there is much more to see on Amylouwho's blog!

this looks beautiful. i love how turning the blocks in a disappearing 9 patch make it looks so different and fancy. the colors are beautiful. your binding is amazing. i also love a perfect corner. i think the binding is kind of soothing and i chose it as my favorite part of quilting as well.
ReplyDeleteI like both sides, even if one is a little "plain jane". Great job!
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful, I love the pattern and your choice of fabrics. I can only dream of the day when my quilt will be finished.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty.
ReplyDeleteI really like the back too! It looks very feminine and sweet. Nice work. I have long arm envy!
ReplyDeletewhat a beautiful quilt!! I love that D9P too! what a simple stunning pattern!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Those corners look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful! I was just admiring this pattern in a book or magazine earlier today.
ReplyDeletePretty! Love the purple. (I also love the table runner in your blog banner! I love Verna!)
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty quilt! Isn't it great when a quilt comes together nicely right down to the mitred binding corners. Nice job and I like the simple back!
ReplyDeleteI don't think the back is plain jane at all! Very nice:) It's a beautiful quilt.
ReplyDeleteExcellent fabric choices for the DP9 (my fave block). Your quilting is good!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great quilt. I totally agree about the pins. My cheapies have gotten the flick. How lucky are you having a long arm so close and convenient. Quilting looks pretty good for your first time. I am pretty hopless at the free motion quilting. Need more time to practice. It must be great having all that open space to quilt on a long arm compared to a domestic machine. Keep going.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute! Have fun learning on the long arm. It makes quilting so much faster and funner!
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely quilt!!! Great binding and beautiful fabrics. Thanks for sharing.
