Quilt Along Wednesdays!


Here's my homework for Quilt Along Wednesdays with Leah Day called Cucumber Vine. I am late yet AGAIN on getting my homework done, but I have the perfect excuse this time. It's my youngest son's 11th birthday today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DREW!!

This design was a little challenging to stitch. Getting nice pretty round spirals is hard enough, but then traveling back on them and staying on the line....whew! It took a while to get this one done. It's a pretty design, but I think I may need just a tinsy bit more practice on this one.


MY QUESTION FOR LEAH: This has to do with your post today. If you paint your quilt, will the paint eventually crack over time. It just seems that a quilt is so flexible, that it would. Does it make the fabric really stiff where the paint is applied.

That's all for me today. Keep on stitchin'............................:)

    1. Thank you so much! This design was "work" to stitch out. But all in all, I think it turned out pretty good. :)

    1. Thanks Jeanne! But if I would have put up a more close up shot, I did miss quite a few times:/
