The tumbler quilt is finally done! I've been working on this since January of 2005. I was wondering how long it would take me to sew on the binding, but this thing was taking up so much room in my sewing room that I had to get it done to move it out!
Thanks to friend Jaye for cutting so many great fabrics for me, I couldn't have made this without you!
Clocking in at 116x106, it is officially the largest single quilt I've ever created.

You can see the great curvy swirls that Colleen Granger quilted all over this giant thing, I'm super-pleased with how it came out. 
There are all kinds of crazy fabrics in here, even the Venus of Willendorf, which I stamped that with permanent ink.
It is very bright and cheery and interesting to look at, I'm looking forward to having it on our bed.
It's fun to look at from every angle.
The backing is a mish-mosh of great and terrible fabrics. I think making the backing to the right size was the hardest thing about this quilt.
There is always something new to look at in this quilt. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThere really is, I keep spotting different motifs and they make me smile. It's a good thing.
