These aren’t the most wonderful photos but I thought you might like to see the quilting on the fossil quilt. Most of the quilting is a combination of the linear stippling (like little interlocking and overlapping boxes) and wavy lines. The thread is hand dyed in colours ranging from cream to chocolate brown, with terracotta in between.
I have reached the “get it away from me” stage, with this project. When will I learn to stop accepting commissions??? I find the whole process so stressful.
For me, all the joy of making a quilt lies in the development of the idea - watching the thing grow and evolve, wondering what it will become. Once the point of revelation has been reached, it’s just a grind to finish it. And if I don’t LIKE the quilt, it becomes a nightmare and so, so hard to make myself keep going.
Enough complaining for one day. There’s binding to be done!
