Here is another UFO Sunday and my Greek Cross quilt is near the finish line.
The quilting is 75% done. The binding is made and ready to put on.
I decided to do this square loopy design. I will admit, as always, I wasn't sure how to quilt it. So, to think about it, I went ahead and made the binding. But, after much thought, I couldn't get this design out of my head, so I went for it. But I will say, circuit board was a second contender. I am happy with the choice.
I thought I could get this one finished this weekend, but I guess I'm just not that fast. It will be finished before the next UFO Sunday!!
Good job! Your quilting looks great, I like how the angled lines look on the fabric cross.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm glad I went for it. I like how the design looks!
ReplyDeleteI really love your thread color, shows up beautifully on the yellow cross.
ReplyDeletefunny thing about that thread, I had bought it online for another project(2 spools) and it was the wrong shade, but it was perfect for this!
DeleteThe square loopy design is perfect! With all of the right angles in the quilt, it needed something 'squarish'. It looks wonderful! ~Jeanne
ReplyDeletethat's what I thought! Glad you agree:)
DeleteIt always seems to take longer than you think! Great job so far. And you WILL have it completed by next Sunday!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so close! I has to be done by then:)
DeleteI really like this square loops design, can't wait to see how it looks over the whole quilt!
ReplyDeleteThanks, MC! Me too;)
DeleteLove the loopy squares! I hope to see more pictures of this quilt very soon!
ReplyDeleteAwe you will. No longer a UFO!
DeleteLove the colours and quilting Danielle as always your work is lovely. Thanks to reading your blog I found the craftsy block of the month (I know I'm a bit late joining it:) ) x
ReplyDeleteGood! It's never to late for that one. Once you have it, it's yours forever. Plus, I have learned a lot from it( the Craftsy Class)
DeleteI'm never sure how to quilt anything either. Looks like you made a good choice.
ReplyDeleteIt's always such a hard choice, isn't it?
DeleteI think it looks great! Your lines are really straight!
ReplyDeleteI wanted to see your blog - since you commented on mine. Very nice and I really like the quilting pattern you chose. I think choosing the fabric and deciding on the way to quilt are the hardest part!
ReplyDeleteI agree! But the choosing fabric part is getting easier for me since there are so many I love. But still hard.
DeleteThis quilting pattern is perfect for the boxy Greek crosses. Great choice, and you do such a great job quilting it!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean about projects taking a bit longer than you think....I'm starting to suspect time goes faster on weekends. I can't prove it though. :)
