I meant to put these pictures up a long time ago since I finished Liam's quilt in February. I had great dreams of having this photo shoot with it so you could really see the the whole thing, but that hasn't happened and three months have passed. I said while I was working on this that I never wanted to do a quilt again, but now I'm having the itch. The learning curve was big, but I think I could do one again in less time. Also, maybe I need to make the next one bigger since this quilt only has room for Liam and I.
This was a trial run of laying out the fabric to see what it would look like together. This was before the solids were added.
Here is all the fabric with solids and my plan for attack. You are really supposed to do this at random, but I wanted all the colors to be distributed evenly.
My first strip sewn together. Only 9 more to go.
My collection of strips
Skip a few steps ahead and this is me quilting all the layers together. A very long process
A horrible picture of the finished product with black binding and a solid grey back. I like how it came out, just wish it was a little bigger. Oh well, maybe next time.
It looks great!! I've never wanted to take on a quilt project, because it seems so tedious, but yours looks fantastic. :)
