I...Like the icing on the cake don't you think! I knew I would never enjoy stippling the background like the original maker. I liked the way Barbara used the floral motifs in her quilt although it was machine quilted and I couldn't imagine doing all that marking. So I settled for a half inch grid for some balance and some motifs just sprinkled in here and there. I kept thinking way back when quilters just didn't fret over exactness like we do today and if they could do it I surely could try it at least once. So glad that I did.Carla A Few Of My Favorite Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782840958923418159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551007238143198780.post-89051093376922281522016-09-26T12:39:11.129-05:002016-09-26T12:39:11.129-05:00Time to make a pillow or something and try it!Time to make a pillow or something and try it!Carla A Few Of My Favorite Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782840958923418159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551007238143198780.post-16966012540427316952016-09-26T12:38:38.383-05:002016-09-26T12:38:38.383-05:00Yeah, I agree I had to do it justice and go all th...Yeah, I agree I had to do it justice and go all the way.
