UNfinished Friday

'

This quilt is NOT finished.

But....

It's getting there!

 

This was a quilt-along I started

before I new better!

HAh!

We were instructed to applique petals onto squares.

The last few directions NEVER appeared....

 

So......

How do you get all the squares TOGETHER??

 

I ended up folding and trimming everything OUTSIDE

the circle and appliqueing each circle

onto a VERY BIG piece of muslin

setting them RIGHT next to each other

as I went along.

 

I began in the middle

of the VERY BIG piece of fabric...

folded a middle line and used that for my guide.

 

It worked PRETTY good.

NOT perfect.

 

And....

I'm almost done!

 

I need a few more petals around the edge

to EVEN things out.

 

Can you see my pencil lines there?

 

A few more Thursday mornings

appliqueing petals onto this VERY big quilt.

 

It's not easy doing needle turn applique on a
VERY big piece of fabric!

;/

Good thing I have a nice big TABLE to work on!

 

This one's ALSO UNfinished.

OB-viously!

LOL!

 

I had fun with someone's orphan blocks.

Made a few of my own to blend in.

ADDED a center.....

Kind of a backwards way to do it....

Should have appliqued in that WHITE space

BEFORE sticking it in the center.

AH WELL........

That's the way I think sometimes.  ;)

I plopped a recent project in the middle

just to SEE what it might look like.

 

Hey!

I think I like it.

IF I make that applique design a bit bigger....

it JUST might work!!!

 

That's it for my

UNFINISHED FRIDAY!!!
