Personally I quite like the quilting part but, because I don't finish lots of stuff, I don't get enough practice and when it comes time to do an 'important' quilt I usually stuff it up and have to rip out heaps of stitching. There's a reason those commercial quilters are so good. they get lots of practice!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16071169702272418462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2741060306812957345.post-38994727733590185102009-04-16T08:05:00.000+10:002009-04-16T08:05:00.000+10:00This is amazing Linda.

I look at it as an art quilt, not a traditional one so the "feathers" around the outside border flow nicely in their imperfect path!<br />I got a kick out of my "seeing" being tricked looking at the back and only seeing circles, and then the front and seeing no circles but only the scalloped squares!<br />Nice if you could hang this with both sides showing. And the optical illusion is exceptionally well done!<br /><br />Bravo to you and your good work for TB patients! I wish you success in your career in this area as well.<br /><br />Enjoy your trip.Lynn Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12094038275377357886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2741060306812957345.post-77651634268970559742009-04-14T22:32:00.000+10:002009-04-14T22:32:00.000+10:00This problem you have with the quilting sounds rea...This problem you have with the quilting sounds really familiar to me. I still do a lot of handquilting because I am afraid to ruin a good top. You are right, a lot of practising is the solution, I can do small quilts now but big ones still are a problem for me.<br />Good luck on the islands. And also good luck to your DH, who stays at home with the three boys?Margeethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16241811293827991932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2741060306812957345.post-31292949042272944952009-04-14T20:23:00.000+10:002009-04-14T20:23:00.000+10:00Linda, love your quilt's optical illusion!
