I know I did a post a couple of weeks ago that the Verna top (b-day gift for my sister) was done but I can now say that it's really done. The only problem is, I don't like it for my sister. I'll spare you all the blah, blah boring stuff...so in a nut shell, last night I ordered some Boutique from
Kelly. There is a really simple pattern in the Fons&Porter, Fall09, pg 56 magazine I want to do instead. It says you should be able to do it in a day. I guess I'm going to find out. So until the fabric comes in, I'll be working on the Rouenneries quilt. I hope everyone is having a wonderful week!
It is such a "pretty" quilt and you have done a beautiful job putting it together--but I know sometimes "things" just don't "fit" the people we make them for!!! But look at it this way--now you have a gift nearly made for someone else!!!

sorry to hear that you don't think your sis will like it and that you're going to make another one for her. Are you going to keep Verna to enjoy?
ReplyDeleteI love it! You could always send it to me;-)
ReplyDeleteBoutique is very pretty too though. I won a FQ bundle from Kelly for Christmas. I'm waiting on the perfect project for it. Can't wait to see what you do with it!
I love it! I am sure that it is perfect for you.....or....me!
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is lovely! Can't wait to see what you have decided to do for your sister :)

ReplyDeleteOk, I don't know what happened with my previous comment because it wasn't me:(
