Truly Scrumptious

FINALLY...got the 2 final borders on my "Truly Scrumptious" top. I am so happy with how it looks and even happier to cross it off my UFO list after working on it for 3 years or more.


Here's a picture of it before I fold it up and mailed off to the quilter. Please excuse the ruffly edges as I was in no mood to bend down and flatten them out. Also, I should have noticed how closely my fabric blends with the carpeting and took the picture on the hardwood instead...





OH, and just to explain why I was annoyed and wouldn't bend down to flatten the edges....The weatherbug says it's 51. I'm looking out the window at the beautiful sunny yard and I'm thinking I need to take the quilt outside and hang it on the line for a better shot.....



I didn't know it was that windy out...darn quilt would not cooperate!

PS: I can't remember if I put this out there last week, but my friend Sandi in Utah has her own longarm shop and is having a sale on all her quilting designs for the month of March. If you are in need of getting some quilts quilted, please feel free to email her at spunkygal58@yahoo.com or check out her site Moose Valley Quilted Crafts..and please tell her PEGGY sent you :)

Hi, Peggy. Your quilt looks terrific. Isn't it a nice feeling to finish a top ... especially a big one?

I always hang my quilts outside to take a picture. We have a top of part of our deck and I can hang the quilts to get a good picture.
