A "Your Pick" quilt completed

Wish I could say it was my "your pick" quilt completed, but it is my mom's and she did a terrific job! You've already seen a picture of the top, but the link for the completed quilt is below if you want to take a look.

I'm very impressed. My mom quilted this 104" quilt on our little Kenmore using straight line quilting (I was never able to get the Kenmore to go slow enough to make the tension right for FMQ.). She got fancy, printing out leaf stencils on EQ, and sewing over the lines on the paper, turning that huge quilt as needed. I keep teasing my mom about hiring her to quilt some of mine. For some strange reason, she just wants to work on her own projects. LOL!

Of course, Charley had to inspect it when she put it on the bed. Walked all over it, gave it a sniff, began purring, then laid down. It's not often I'm able to get such a good picture of him.

Best regards, Michelle in Nevada

Well, my goodness, Michelle. I tried to see the quilt and my AVG version shrieks: Danger, AVG has detected active threats on this page. Go figure. Polly

Polly, my AVG is screaming at me all morning. I think it may be a new tactic to convince me to keep that annoying AVG toolbar visible. I usually close it. I'm thinking of complaining, but then I'm using a totally free product. What can I complain about?

Gosh, that is amazing. The quilt is just stunning, and from what I can tell, it looks beautifully quilted. The kitty seems to be taking some kind of credit for it all, too. :-)

Just beautiful! She did a great job - and I hope she's proud of it!

Your Charley looks just like my Spooky. It's hard to get good pictures of them when they're solid black, isn't it? But it's obvious he has very good taste in quilts!

Oh dear! I swear it came straight from camera then uploaded. But I have had my antivirus shriek on some websites that should be safe too, and I wonder if it's the ads. Eke! I'm sorry!

I've uploaded to my old webshots account. Try this:

LOL! Good eye. Actually at the moment, they are blue and red. :-) We buy soft paws--plastic tips that cover his regular claws and keeps him from damaging the furniture.

Best regards, Michelle > Why does Charley have blue claws?

Thanks Sherry, I agree. Maybe I should try and get a close up the quilting. My cameras skills are shall we say...lacking. Ahem.

And oh yes, you'd think the Charley's inspection was the most important part of the process! LOL!
