Design Wall Monday



The trees quilt top for the Wedding is finished, in white. I think the borders give it some snap. The wedding colors are green/purple.

Here is the original quilt in black. I am a big fan of the black but then I made the white background one.....

Now to focus on binding. I have three quilts to whip stitch. I better get them done before it gets warm around here!

I counted my unfinished quilt tops. I have 10 to quilt. 4 have backing and one has batting. I gotta get going!

Both versions are very pretty. What a great gift. Those darn UFO's sure can sneak up on you,

Very pretty quilts.

You sound like me. I have quite a few waiting to be quilted....I would much rather piece.....

The trees are great - I really like them on white also. I wish I only had 10 quilts to quilt - I have many more.

You are making progress! I like the wedding trees but really yours against the black sparkle so much more!

Beautiful trees. And I know what you mean about having quilting UFOs. I never did but it is harder for me to think up what to quilt on a top than to come up with piecing ideas. So the UFO list grows....until I need a gift to give. ;-)

Debbie said...

Great progress...even if there are a few quilts in the "to be quilted," pile.

Kate said...

Beautiful Wedding quilt! The white is pretty. I really like quilt with the black background too.

Amazing how only the background makes such a difference. Like them both.

Vicki your trees are gorgeous! I really like them on the white background, too. I notice you're using the wonder clips for your binding. Don't you just love them? I've got a set of 25...I won them at a guild raffle...I definitely want to get some more!! :)
