Thanks, Blogger!I had this post all ready to go and somehow it got "lost" in the ozone. I cannot express how upset I am!
Anyway, the quilt at left is my Christmas Diamonds flimsie. It is based on a pattern from Fons & Porter's magazine (Imperial Diamonds).
I first posted about it almost a year ago, here.
The thing is I modified the pattern to better use the fabric I already had, and my mods have taken a nice, queen-sized project to a monster king-sized one. I don't even have a final measurement because I don't have floor space big enough to lay it out.
I have an idea, though, and if it works, I will have dimensions to give Michele when I talk to her. My concern is that the batting that I have is 120-inches square, and I think the flimsie is 112 by 113. She wants 4 inches on each side, and that only gives me 3.5. On my last quilt she scolded me for not giving her enough room around the quilt.
More to come . . .
In the meantime, I'm linking up to Design Wall Monday. Check out the incredible online inspiration!
Very colorful. I am sure you will be glad to have it finished. It is really pretty and will look so special on your bed at Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it is the batting she is concerned about as much as it is the backing. I love your quilt.
