Pop Around the World
Whew, I have worked this evening. I had started this "trip around the world" top using a Bali Pop. (batik 2.5" strips)
I found it in the UFO pile and decided it needed to be finished. So I used all the rest of the strips and surrounded it.
It isn't as large as I would like, but I don't have anything that looks good with it. (and I did a lot of auditioning - that is half the work!) I just can't purchase for any more fabric at this time. So, I will back it, quilt it, bind it and hope someone loves it enough to buy it. It would look great on a wall.

I like it a lot...it really appeals to my affinity for GREEN!!! :) Good job, Gene!
ReplyDeleteOh...and not to worry...I have NO trouble ignoring that exercise equipment right along with you!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is just wonderful....glad you finished it, I am sure it feels good to deplete your UFO pile.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt top is just beautiful and made with my favorite color - green! I'm sure you won't have any trouble selling it.
ReplyDeleteIt's stunning! I can see your auditioning results especially in those borders. It's lovely!
ReplyDeleteLove it, Gene. Now I can see why you commented on my FB post about Batiks. It's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love those Bali pops too.
What a super quilt - love the colours!!!
ReplyDeleteNumber one, I love this design and number two, you use one of my favorite colors.... GREEN... so I very love this quilt!!
ReplyDeleteIt would definitely look good hanging on a wall. I love the colors!
ReplyDeleteI love your note "ignore the exercise equipment beside the quilt, I do." HA!
