Last friday I received a message that I was looking forward to getting! My Snow globes quilt had been quilted and was ready to be picked up. I swung by after work and I am so happy with it.
The quilt design has very cute little bells/baubles in the design.
Binding needs to go on but thanks to a full on social weekend it has to wait to be done.
The fabric to the right of the quilt is the backing fabric. There is heaps left so I am going to bind the quilt in this fabric. The weave is really tight so I think it will suit ok.
I managed to finish another ginger jar block since my last post and I thought I would put the blocks up on my Caswell design board to see how they are blending together.
I am quite happy with the picture and love to see how it's progressing. I haven't had much time to prep a new bunch of flowers but hoping that I will get to this week.
Happy days!

Those ginger jars are coming along nicely. I like them. And of course, the orchid is beautiful.

Beautiful orchid Marina! You have the touch. Love your snow globes, the quilting brings it alive doesn't it. The ginger jars all look stunning, it is going to be a beautiful quilt.
ReplyDeleteThe snow globes look great Marina but I love how the ginger jars are looking, just gorgeous. Beautiful orchid. We had wild orchids in France and I do miss seeing them, the cultivated ones need to be grown indoors here. xx
ReplyDeleteBoth quilts look amazing. What a pretty orchid.
ReplyDeleteThe snow globe quilt looks wonderful. That quilting design looks lovely, too. I agree with the choice of fabric for the binding, and a bonus that it is on the back, too. This is going to turn out really well.
ReplyDeleteGreat progress on the ginger jars. Yes, it's a busy time and sometimes sewing prep has to wait.
Love that orchid. It is obviously happy growing where it is if it is ready to bloom so soon after being split up. Lovely colour.
A beautiful quilt pattern. The binding is going to look super great.
ReplyDeleteYour design wall also makes a very good impression. I hope you have lots of fun creating the blossoms.
Your orchid blossoms are truly lovely.
Sending you all my best.
Enjoy the spring.
