Last photo of "Determination", before it goes into the storage closet for an unnamed recipient. Yesterday I did the binding in one day, and my hands were so cramped! 3597 pieces, which is documented on the label, but then I realized later that I hadn't counted the 9 binding strips, the 2 backing pieces and the 1 label! So there, that's how many pieces. Of course, the number of string units had to be averaged. 
New project - playing with strings, with basic, gentle machine quilting.
And you do a beautiful of job quilting. I love the design you used on Determination. Is that a Patsy Thompson pattern?
ReplyDeleteWow! Lots of pieces. Great job on the quilting. Do you use fabric under your strings or paper or ??? Just curious.
ReplyDeleteWOO HOO and congrats on your Orca Bay finish! Such a pretty palette on your new project :)

ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing Determination. I like your string blocks, and your quilting of course.
ReplyDeleteElaine, that is very impressive!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your finish. And counting the number of pieces--I think that will be a very important part of the label.
ReplyDeleteI love black too for a border. Your quilting--as always--beautiful and inspiring.
Chuckled over your garage door!
