Throwback Thursday ~ Gwennie

This is still one of my most favorite quilts I’ve ever made! Enjoy!

Finish It Up Friday

Posted on March 24, 2017 by katyquilts

Today’s finish is a big one! I’m happy to say my Gwennie Inspired Medallion from the QAL is finally done!

While most people made wall or throw sized quilts, I added enough borders to make mine fit my queen bed. The problem with making big quilts is trying to get good photos. The slightest breeze does this:

Ugh!

Here are some detail shots.

I’m really glad I went back and added more appliqué to the center block.

I used a plain backing and the quilting shows up beautifully.

It fits my bed perfectly!

Now it is ready to send off to Lori at Humble Quilts  for the First Friday show in Oregon in May. I just have to find a really big box.

Have a great day
