The last days I had a hard fight. There was this huge...thing...which was constantly wrapping itself around my sewing machine, my sewing table my lap and my shoulder. I nearly couldn´t handle it, but than finally, after two days with aching shoulders and sweat running down my back, about eight yards of binding and 6 episodes of "Private Practice" later, it is done! Now there is a huge smile on my face, and a huge QUILT on my bed, and I am really proud. I can tell.
It is definetely not perfect, I try not to take closer looks, but I SO love it!
And I also made three pillows to match with it. It is 10 am at the moment but I would love to crawl under my new quilt, lay my head on one of the pillow and stay in bed all day.
BUT: the sun is shining, work is calling and so I have to wait until tonight, when I will be really tired and so happy to sleep under this one.
And all this beauty (sorry, you see I am really extremely in love) is made from just one Tula Pink "Plume" layer cake, some grey cotton and a little bit Plume Yardage for the binding.
Do you guys also get so euphoric, when you finish a piece which you really love?
Love, love, love the quilt! It looks pretty perfect to me :)

AntwortenLöschenHabe mich gleich mal als Leserin eingetragen und bin schon ganz gespannt auf weiter Projekte.
Ich kann mir gar nicht vorstellen, wie stressig so ein Riesenteil unter einer Nähmaschine sein kann...
