Heia Malmö FF, quilt finished !

Omsider, ferdig!!

Det tok litt tid, men nå er det klart. Quiltingen var det som tok lengst tid.
Tenkte jeg skulle trene på stipling, men tråden bare gikk av hele tiden, så det ble vanlige sömmer isteden.

Den lyseblå fargen ser nesten litt grönnaktig ut i det dårlige vinterlyset, men inne er den riktig lyseblå.
Som sagt, dårlig lys, og bare mobiltetelfon bilder, har fortsatt ikke funnet min kamera-lader....

The Quilt out in daylight, if you can call it that. Half dark, and grey, and only pictures with my cell- phone.

The light blue color almost turn into green in this light.

The quilt measures 1,60 x 1,30 m, and that is ca.  63 x 51 inch.

The backside....

Close up , front

 

Close up in the front, middle.

The football is made from small hexagons...

It's still just January,  and 0 degrees!!! freezing!  Picture from my window at lunchtime today.

Have a nice day.





 

Trip around the World, finished :-)

At last, finished.
Today I could take pictures outside, the sun was shining.
And this is what I managed;

It's cold and clear, and in the background you can see the bridge to Denmark.

A beautiful day.

 

 

The size of the finished quilt is 172x172 cm.

I used cotton batting 80/20

The backside, and my label in the left corner.

In the end I had some more leftover blocks, and they became tablematts, or mugrugs. Depending on the size of the mug or the plate... hihi
I did some testing with free motion quilting for the first time.
And I can tell you I need some heavy training to be up and going on this technic. I signed up for a class on Craftsy, and hope to get the time to look into it during the spring/summer.
Have a nice day. :-)

Looking back, some finished quilts from earlier years. All earlier published. :-)
