Thimbleberries progress
I was getting impatient because I don't have anything completed to show, so decided to post some pictures of what I have been doing - quilting on this king-sized Thimbleberries 2008 BOM. It was to be a queen-sized quilt, but I needed it bigger, so did some changing on the borders so it will work. It is a huge job to quilt, but I will win in the end!!

Wow!! Donna you are doing a fantastic job.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lot of work goes into quilting one that big. I know how heavy and bulky it gets. But you are doing a fantastic job. Can't wait to see the whole quilt. It will be a beauty.
ReplyDeleteI am probably as excited to see it as you are to get it done. It was a beauty unquilted!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, Donna...that looks like about an acre of fabric! It's coming along nicely, and I know you--it will be gorgeous when you finish.
