Revamping a Design, WIP

Pin It
Awhile back, here...

I wanted to make a jelly roll, quick fix quilt...

Well, after it was all sewed together with the fabric


I didn't like it.

I tried to like it.

I turned it this way

I turned it that way.

I folded it up and hid it from view.

It just grated against some nerve or something.

I decided to make it up and sell it.

I couldn't even do that.

So, I got it out again and looked it over.

I decided that if I took out some prints I could live with it.
(why do I have that gene that won't let me just throw stuff away?)
I didn't pay full price for the fabric, I probably got it at a yard sale...


This is what I ended up with.
I kinda like it now, I know fickle women...

I still need to find some kind of backing and I think I may put on a border if it suits me.
But, that is what is going on around here.

How is your day going?

  1. I like the change, and a border will help to finish it off.

  2. Looks good. I have a "few" quilts in the making. Well, at least cut out but not started. I just had to drive an hour away to pick up my sewing machine that was in for repair. We don't have a Bernina dealer any closer than that. Boo. Anyway, it ended up being an easier repair thus a cheaper repair. Yay! Got to get a few gifts made before our weekend trip to O.K.
