I pulled it out this summer to quilt after I added the robotics to my long arm. At that point in time, I paid my son to rip off the borders because the top was really wavy. After redoing the borders, I quilted it. It was one of my first robotics projects so it's not the greatest quilting job. I recall that I was thinking I could have quilted the thing by hand a lot faster than it went on the robotics. It took hours and hours. On the plus side, just a few months later, I can totally see what I should have done to make it turn out better.
So, anyway. I quilted it and sewed on the binding in June and didn't start sewing down the binding until October. I got the binding done pretty quickly and finished it up late on November 1.
Fabrics are Avalon by Fig Tree Quilts. Blocks are by lots of people, courtesy of Fat Quarter Shop. The quilting is called Garland. The finished size is 70" x 84.5".
This is #2 on my 2019 FAL Q4 list. I have 2 of my 15 projects (13.3%) finished.

I love everything about this quilt! Beautifully done. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteHi Anne-Marie, congrats on your finish. It was probably the perfect quilt to learning to use your robotics. It may have taken a long time but one of your quilts had to be the first! It's also great that you know how you could improve your quilting only a few months later.
