... I'll bind it later, but just had to hang it up in the studio for a quick peek at the whole quilt and the over-all effect, I couldn't wait! I like it; I can see
progress on the quilting front, stitch by stitch, we're gettin' there. My plans are for one more pop of red with the piping and a small scale black floral for the finishing (binding) touch. This one fits the space nicely and the colors are wonderful in here. Eventually the loveseat that is taking up space (background, far left) will exit and an oak drop leaf table will enter to sit against the wall under the quilt with a couple of comfortable chairs for doing hand work. At least that's my plan! (I also plan to move the large flat screen TV from the family room to the front wall between the windows in here but that's another post for another day...) One thing at a time, and right now the binding's calling!Life is Good!

Very nice. I love the shots of blue in the quilt.
Its beautiful Mrs G, very rich and sumptuous! Regal even, I love it, great job!
That is such a nice setting for sampler blocks. Will the light from the windows bother you when watching teevee?

The quilt is just beautiful! You did a wonderful job :-)
My oh my! I LOVE the setting of the blocks! Very powerful.
Ooo, I really like that setting..are those blocks from a BOM or buck a block that a lot of the shops do? I have several sets of those and really like the ways yours is put together. BEAUTIFUL!
Oh how I wish mine was finished. Job well done, as usually!
WOW! That is a beautiful quilt. I love the red in it.
Check out your work! Look at the colors ~ rich. Check out that nosegay block. I love it. I love how you worked the colors. I honed right in on that, Mrs. G. But back to your quilting. Proof positive that quilting makes the quilt.
Okay, "Hanging Out" with you just Rocks!!!
Warm and lively, truly a sampler worth spending many happy hours making! Glad you're getting to the ending with this one, it obviouswly makes you feel good!
Yummy!! Love the way you have set those blocks!
Beautiful,I love it!
Beautiful quilt!
Its a beauty, that's for sure. I think it looks perfect in that spot. I also like your quilting on Fanny's quilt. I think she would be please at what you have done and very appreciative that you put so much thought and care into doing it.
What a beauty. Looking at the quilting has given me inspiration for how I could quilt the pinwheel blocks on the quilt (my first full size one) that I am currently working on. Thank you.
Another wonderful creation! Beautifully rich--so appealing. All you've done and shown "us"--how could you not have walls and walls of quilts?!
These blocks were challenging, but maybe I will get them out again one day. Your quilting is great on this one.
I really love sampler quilts and this one is gorgeous! I think the red piping will be perfect. blessings, marlene
What a great way to set off some really complex exhibition blocks that you wouldn't want to make more than one of - a really unusual take on a sampler quilt
