Once I came back inside, the sun was still so nice, I decided to do something just for it! I've had this idea for awhile - ever since I saw this quilt that Emma did. I thought it was just so neat! Today was my day to try. I came up with a sketch (lousy picture)
Added some metalic holographic sliver for some sparkle!
McTavished the sky
and this is as far as I got today!
Just a little bit left to finish, and then some threads to bury.
Oh I love me a sunny day!
Cheers,
Janet

Way cool!
Wow! How did you get so close to the edges and still maintain great control?
Amazing!
This is a technique I want to try.
Thank you everyone.
Mary Ann & Mother - on this quilt I did not cut the top down to its finished size before quilting, so in fact I will be trimming off some of the quilting around the edges when I'm finished when I square it up. In general though, I try to turn my quilt so that I almost always have my hands on the quilt to control it. This one will only be about 12" square, so it was pretty easy to turn and manage.
Janet, your quilting is amazing!!! So creative!
I love your thread painting. That's marvelous! Lane
