I finished the quilting on this Sunday evening--so excited! I am on schedule to finish by the end of the month, yay!

| Lots of threads to tie off and bury. |

| Lots of threads to trim on the back. |
Now I'm just waiting for an hour of well-lit alone time to trim/square it and then put on the binding! And then wash it...and I am very nervous to do so with my first ever printed panel (the door sign) that I forgot to prewash after printing it. I did use
Bubble Jet Set on it, and after it was pieced in I made a second sign to pre-wash and see if the ink would hold. Here's the results:
Fingers crossed that the one in the quilt washes just as nicely. I should have it finished to share on Friday!
I am crossing my fingers!

Awesome-sauce! Your quilting looks fab :)
ReplyDeleteYour FMQ continues to amaze me. It is beautiful. Good luck in the wash. I am always a little afraid when I wash my quilts the first time.
ReplyDeleteLooking great! Can't wait to see the whole thing!
ReplyDeleteLovely quilting. I've fot my fingers crossed for the wash. Regular quilts are nerve wracking enough, let alone having a panel you're concerned about.
ReplyDeleteLovely work!
ReplyDeleteLove what I see, hope you will post a full pic soon!
ReplyDeleteI love your quilting...everytime I stop by I think: I can't wait for summer break so I can play!!" V:)

ReplyDeleteLoving your quilting! That was a cool test you did there...good to know. I always wait a while before i wash...just to enjoy the crispness of the finish. I bet it will be fine:)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilting!!! Love all the swirls going on.
ReplyDeleteHope he label works out for ya;)
Hope it holds! Love your free motion swirls in the background. And all those thread tails.... Sew worth knotting and burying! Great progress, Renee. Looking forward to the big finish!
ReplyDeleteVery nice quilting. I especially like the sky! I've seen that middle result before. My mother gave my husband and I a wedding quilt with a printed label. Turns out the label wasn't set. It's only been a couple years and you can't read the label anymore. :/ That Bubble Jet Set seems to work rather well though! Good luck!
