(If you need help in changing your settings, please let me know!) Seems that Maria has quite a fan club. :-) I'm glad you think I "nailed it." It was definitely "work" for me, and now that it's finished, I'm feeling more love toward it. Please know that the facing method isn't my own. I found it on the Bernina site. It was created by Hayley Grzych.

To me it's kinda like looking at modern art - I don't know what it's supposed to be or represent (my first question about most things is, 'what's it for?) The sort of design process you went through would drive me mad but I'm glad you persevered because the resulting quilt is wonderful!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00815741923418492777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1876048627096284071.post-7893174423158533952021-03-14T22:43:16.315-04:002021-03-14T22:43:16.315-04:00Oh my gosh, that process is so me....thanks for pu...Oh my gosh, that process is so me....thanks for putting it in words!

The opportunity to let your quilting skills shine in all the custom quilting. And of course the photo with the Bismarck Palm. Well done Linda.

I think your backing is a quilt in itself and I'm calling it Up the Down Staircase in my own mind. I quite love how your quilting is featured so wonderfully on the back. Great use for some of the scrappy leftovers from the front.Quilting Babciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16225825007525655805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1876048627096284071.post-90338295703066363862021-03-12T13:19:51.640-05:002021-03-12T13:19:51.640-05:00It is gorgeous.

I have a quilt I want to try that binding method on. I have been puzzled on how to bind it and this seems perfect. I have yoyo's all around the outer border and felt a regular binding just would not look right. Now I have to get it quilted so I can try out the binding :)Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09077658139465236292noreply@blogger.com
