Finished quilting yesterday! This was my first time to use spray baste. I sprayed each layer outside and then assembled it on my design wall. I quilted it on my domestic machine. I changed thread colors often. I quilted leaf veins on all the petal pieces but kept all the other motifs simple using mostly swirls and leaves. The binding is a faux binding brought over from the back (which is scrappy as well). I just trimmed the back to 1" larger than the front and then folded half an inch twice towards the front (to end up with a scant half inch binding). Thank you Barbara, for all your wonderful blog information and video posts. Thank you also to Helen W and other forum participants for your kind encouragement.

I decided that my quilt was ready to be quilted. The fabrics just didn't speak to me to continue another round. In the yellow section of the quilt I found decorative wooden buttons to tie the look together. I also watched the recent "Master Class" and really liked Patricia Belyea's way of Facing her quilts. So I decided to try this. I used a single layer (instead of double) and I mitered the corners. I loved the overall look at the back of the quilt with this idea. I found that the design of the fabric I choose was probably not the best for this project, but the fabric truly spoke to me in terms of what was going to work and what wasn't. I'm glad to have started this quilt project but I glad it is also done.

I like the Block of the Month for 2024. I hand stitched the 2 center sections but machine sewed the rest. I'm not to into doing appliqué so I embroidered flowers on each log cabin block.After I was all done with the embroidery I noticed I had forgotten to turn the log cabin block so the embroidery was on the side that would have the darker fabric on the outside. Oh we'll I still think it is unique. I added the dark green stripes between the sections because my eyes just saw something else was needed. I just added a stripped border to finish the design. I just need to quilt on the longerm!Last edited by Diana L.; 09-04-2024, 11:34 PM.

distinct. The embroidery flowers look great too. Barbara Black does have a topic in the forum for finished tops. Maybe
she could move your post there so more people will see it. Great job, I am still working on my fan final border. HelenW
