Quilting is progressing nicely on OBW


I cut out these triangles in May of 2011 while I was in France taking care of my mom who was very ill.  I came back and put the triangle sets in a drawer.

I pulled them out last month, designed and pieced the quilt, and now I am quilting it.

Most of the center is done and it is going quickly. It's so busy that I'm not afraid to make a mistake. I've also experimented with a stencil which I've never done before.

  4. It's beautiful, just like a kaleidoscope. This is a great quilt to experiment with new quilting designs. It would look great if you did something different in each hexagon!

  5. Thank you Ladies! I am pretty much putting a different design in each hexagon, but it is more for my practice than anything else. This quilt is very busy, and I really think most of the designs will become lost in the fabric. But hey, I am having fun, and I am practicing FMQ. Who knows, maybe when I wash it all the designs will magically reappear!
