Scrappy and Quilted

The Scrappy quilt is now completely quilted and joined into one big piece.
I think it looks great.  There are some parts of it that I really love. 
The quilting was fun and is as "scrappy" as the piecing. 
Yet it all works together. 

I really love the quilting I did in the "pink" blocks that are near the center
of the quilt

I also love the piece above in the peachy fabric.
This photo is skewed as the quilt was not hanging straight. 

Finally this yellow section makes me smile a lot. 
I was aiming for a different pattern but the quilting seemed
to take over and do something different.  
That is quite okay with me, I love that part too. 

The big question I am asking myself is whether I want to quilt another panel 
or some borders to make the quilt a bit bigger. I confess that sewing them on would 
be a challenge. That is one reason I have a limit on the size of quilts 
that I make.  But I think it would be more useful in a slightly bigger size. 
Decisions, decisions! 


Until Next Time,

Oh wow, Gene. This is a beautiful piece of art! The quilting in the peach really caught my eye in the first photo but I love it all.

It’s amazing! One of those things that you can never stop looking at because you see something different every time. Well done!

It looks great right now but I struggle with the same decision on my quilts...quit now or make it a more usable size. If you are stopping at art, it is done. If you need to keep warm you maybe need to add.
