I have to say this was a fun goal to work on, and I'm glad I finished it. It was outside my comfort zone, but something I want to do more of. The little art quilt I started for my sister last April has been pinned and basted for a long time. I had tried to do a little free motion quilting on it and hated it so much I ripped it all out and threw it into a pile of "stuff!"
Starting over, I decided to take it one section at a time and see what happens.
Straight-line quilting gets a little boring, but it sure looks good!
Once I had the binding on it still needed a little something so I dug out the BeJeweler I bought and never used. (I have tons of tools, notions, and rulers that have yet to be removed from their original packaging. I bet other quilters never do that!)
That was fun! It's a good thing I'm not a sweatshirt gal or I might have been up all night BeJewelling away.
I did "just enough" to give it a little pizzazz.
I call it "Otherness" which is a word I came across in a novel and loved. It perfectly fits my sister. I can't wait to see this hanging in her home.
I am linking up with the ALYoF November Finishes Party at Fiber of All Sorts. My original goal was #66 and my finish is #41.
It's nearly 11:00 at night on the 7th of November, and I need to set my ALYoF goal for this month before midnight. It's a good thing Hubby reminded me or I would be popping up in bed in the middle of the night remembering, then realizing it was too late.
I started this little art quilt for my sister's new apartment back in April. It's about time I finished it.
I need to keep this short and to the point and get myself to bed. I'm not normally up this late!
