Close up of applique blocks

I FINALLY took pictures of my quilt that I ribboned with at our local show. Been meaning to for some time and just never managed to get it done until today. There are 22 pictures here - so if you go cross-eyed looking at them, imagine what I was like after quilting it all!! I'm really tickled with how these turned out, and I completely hope that a year from now I will look back on these and think "ewwww!" That's what I think about my projects from a year ago, so hopefully I'll continue to grow in my abilities and next summer be so much better than I am now. Some day I hope I can actually take a class on longarm quilting - I'll probably learn I'm doing everything wrong!!

    Thanks so much for showing the close-up pictures. The details are wonderful. It's really inspiring! I'd like to quilt like that in a few years!!

    Absolutely beautiful! Please, only take a class if you think it can help you do the quilting more efficiently. I cannot imagine that a class would help your creativity. You seem to just *know* what works for the style of the quilt.
