I finished my Triangles Galore Bee Quilt!
There was much more quilting on this one than I usually do . . .
I was practicing my FM skills,
and I have to say I am pleased with the results.
You can see more about this quilt here.
It all came together in the end.
The borders, the quilting, the binding . . .
I tried pebble quilting for the first time, in the small inner border.
It certainly uses a lot of thread, but I love the effect,
and it is very forgiving!
My border was kinda of floppy, so the heavy quilting
made it lie flat again.
I love this quilt! So much color!
It is headed to one of my favorite people.
But it's a surprise, so I can't tell you who!
Our Metro Mod meeting was this past Saturday,
and I sat on the floor finishing up the binding
just in time!

You can see all the show and tell from the meeting here.
Our last meeting in Victoria's loft.
We will have new digs in December.
I will miss her cozy loft, but we have gotten too big in membership!
What did you do this weekend?
Hi Lisa, should have come over to introduce myself yesterday at the guild but with all the people and chatter it just didn't happen. I really wanted to say how much I love the quilt and what a thrill it gives me to see my block in there. I'm so impressed with how it's turned out - great job :)
