Now for the extremely large task of soaking and blocking (soaking always makes me nervous) and then binding. I'm going to do a facing which is contoured to match the edges of the bats (rather than a traditional binding) and I expect the process to be a nightmare. Who knows, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised!
Wow. Really something to be proud of. It's magnificent. Might make me cry when you show the front. :)
ReplyDeleteThat was so fast! I'm amazed at your speed free-motion quilting! Are you using a home-machine or a long-arm?
ReplyDeleteYou should probably hang this so that the back shows, too. It is fabulous! I was wondering if you would soak it when finished to get those blue marks out. It is a scary process. Have you made this quilt for something special?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Shannon! Why are you soaking it? I assume to remove the marks...? It looks really beautiful. I think the edge treatment around the bats will be fantastic... well worth the effort. Keep going. Teresa
