Off my design wall – 2014.06.11

The sailboat quilt – titled ‘Catching the Wind’ – is finished (except for the sleeve and label, which I will get done soon).  I’m really happy with how it turned out, but I’m really looking forward to working on several other projects that have accumulated while I was working on this one.Aske_Terry_Catching_the_Wind-001

 

On my post last week, Heidi Lindsay posted a comment – “The sailboat looks great! I did one that is quite similar, although only 6 x 9 inches, which I’d like to share with you if you send me an email address.

Here’s Heidi’s sailboat quilt – ‘Keeping the Dream Alive’

KeepingTheDreamAlive_1_Frnt“This is ‘Keeping The Dream Alive.’  It’s about 6 x 9 inches, lives in my husband’s cube at work, and I made it after taking a class with Sue Benner at Asilomar.  It’s fused, machine quilted, and serged on the edges.  Your bigger quilt makes me want to do this is a larger form.  I did my quilting before attaching the sailboat.”
