These pics show me that the fence needs a clean and paint. However ... the top is complete and with the darker fabrics I have made a strip to be pieced into the back. If I did this again, there are a few more fabrics I would take out of the top - they are still a bit too dark.
The quilt attracted Lucy the Cat all the way from her bed in the sewing room.
Here's a close up of one of my fave fabrics. It's by Heather Ross and has a linen feel to it, although I think it is just cotton.
I think the top looks fine - but I know what you mean about photographs revealing patterns you hadn't noticed before sewing it all up!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that Heather Ross, but then I love all her stuff :) I wish they'd print the designs on quilting cotton as well as the linen/cotton blends, the details are so fine sometimes I think they get lost on the coarser weave.
Sometimes simple quilts are the best ; ) lovely
