I did a lot of similar outline quilting of the houses, doors, windows, etc.... eventually realized I needed to meander over the large open areas of the background since I used a dark blue solid. It worked well and made the designs 'pop'....When almost done I found I had to do some more 'background' quilting on the bridges and the arch to balance the quilting a bit more. I am finally happy with it.... and that it is DONE... [see my post below]. 'Color My World' It was a wonderful project ..learned some new techniques for sure!

I finally finish my quilt top. I decided to make my trees more into the fall season. I'm really looking forward to getting it quilted by my friend with a long arm. It doesn't show up in the picture but the background fabric is golden metallic which gives the quilt a sparkly effect. I didn't care for the half tree in the outer circle so I left them out. On to the next BOM! Thanks to everyone for the help and comments and encouragements.

Color my world — your finish here
Better late than never. This quilt has been probably one of my most favorite quilt projects. Although it was challenging I learned a new paperpieced technique this year and a lot about putting together a circular quilt and fell in love with hand dyed fabrics.

Many of the BOM quilts for The Quilt Show over the years have been award winners at lots of shows, from the very beginning. We are so fortunate to get such great designers work their magic for The Quilt Show!Barbara Black
