This is UFO # 13, the 2nd of 2 tops donated by Annie. I finished the quilting a week or so ago but rushed to do the binding tonight in order to send it off to a teenage boy with cancer.
And because I love the texture the clamshells give this quilt – here’s a close-up.
Most of my afternoon was spent waiting for Chesty to be groomed. I had some errands to run but they were running really late and he ended up being there for 4 hours. Tomorrow he has a Vet visit and we pick up refills of his meds. It’s like having a child at home.
I head to Virginia early on Wednesday morning (a 5:30AM flight!) so I don’t expect to get much else done before leaving as I have laundry and packing to do in addition to getting this quilt shipped out and taking Chesty to the Vet.
This is a very beautiful quilt Mary. I love the quilt pattern.I think you will make someone very happy.
I really like the way those clam shells look on that quilt too.
Lovely quilt. The clam shells are wonderful!
This is beautiful, I love the clamshells. Have a safe trip.
I have not seen a string quilt that I didn’t love, and those clamshells really add to it!
Yourquilting is gorgeous….this clam shell design works really well with the heart strings. I am sure he will love it!
Clamshells really add texture and although I can’t feel it I imagine it gives a nice body to the quilt. Have a nice trip!
The quilting works very well on this, isn’t the string design just gorgeous, such a fabulous way to mix an eclectic group of fabrics. Tracey
