Here is a quilt I just finished today, it is called “Trip Around the World”. I used the Eleanor Burns Quilt in a day pattern for it. Of course, my quilt was not finished in a day…more like 2 weeks. I have made a Trip Around the World baby quilt in a day but this is a full size quilt for my guest room/sewing room/computer room. I wanted something bright and bold. I do feel slightly selfish making something for me with holidays quickly approaching, but I couldnt wait!!
Now the hard part..borders. I hadnt really even given it a second thought when I started because I knew what I wanted the bold colors to be.
I am going to the Amish Quilt Shop Hop in Holmes County on Thursday…hopefully I will get some little Amish lady to point the perfect fabrics for my borders.
Hey Wendi! That is an awesome quilt!! Yes you NEED to have this in your sewing area…we need to stay inspired to do that sewing for others…;-)I would consider a black border.Thanks so much for visiting my blog!!I replied to you here as you are set up to no reply…;-)I am following you too!!Hugs,Lola
Thank you!! I was thinking black border as well!! I actually didnt know that I could set my replies up for a reply or not.:) Thanks for the heads up and for watching my blog as well!!:)Wendi
Great quilt! I am chiming in with Lola, as I tried to reply to the comment you made on my blog, but you are set up as no-reply. If you go to I Have a Notion blog, she has directions on how to fix the no-reply. Oh and btw, maybe I will see you at the Amish Shop Hop 🙂
Thanks ladies! I believe I have corrected the problem. And Maybe I will see you at the Amish Quilt Shop Hop…hint..we are sticking to the 5 closes to Berlin.:)
Beautiful quilt! I love the trip around the world pattern. Happy quilting,Susan
