Picket Fence


Of course, a fence has vines climbing all over. Excuse that my fence is facing downward. Looks like it needs some birds or butterflies in that unquilted space.

I couldn't WAIT to get started on this one! THis quilt turned out to be about 84" x 98" -- MUCH larger than planned but ... kinda like a garden - you make one bigger each year until the garden is in control! LOL

Picket Fence on Pineapple Blossom Quilt


This lovely project created in a class with our famous Bonnie Hunter of Quiltville.com has been languishing since late winter, because it was not quite large enough for a double bed. I added another 2 inches of little interest, to each side. My solution to the head and foot was adding this 7 inch picket fence, using the scraps I already had. At first I had it all drafted out with crossbars/spacers, background and my plan was over-the-top tedious. This simplified version gets the idea across much better. I am a happy camper!
