Stitch detail |
This is a quilt for my friend Shelby. She had made a quilt for her niece and had waaaaay over bought the necessary fabric for it and didn't know what to do with it. I asked for the scraps and made this one for her. I let her pick the pattern, the thread and everything. She went with crazy wild colours for the thread: chartreuse, purple and green. This is the first rail fence I've done and yes, I obviously suck, but I am getting better. It was a lot of fun to quilt. Took roughly 120ish hrs. Give or a take a few. I don't really keep track, I know I should. I suspect I would be disgusted with the amount of time I was not being adequately compensated for. However, I do this stuff at work and they are paying me to be nice to people on the phone...and I get the scraps as partial payment for my work and that feeds my stash...so...I guess it's really a labour of love and in the long run "Love is all you need," so sayeth the Fab Four.
