It's not a Quilt!

I've been having a play on my new longarm, I am no good what so ever at just practicing on a piece of fabric, I need a purpose!

So I used some glazed cotton/chintz .....the 18 inch squares refered to previously already had a purpose..... here's the finished practice piece, 

I intended to use a couple of the best blocks to keep as a benchmark for my future quilting....

So here are my finished cushions......




Lots of feathers and curved cross hatching using Carol's 'Fineline Ruler's' from Accents in Design, you can find them here....

My next practice session is already on the frame.....such a shame that work gets in the way of my playtime.....

  1. Gorgeous practice!! So what's the verdict? Are you totally blissful? Is it everything you had hoped? I can't wait to get my new Innova. I'll probably skip the practice and jump right in with a customer quilt. I may never get caught up if I don't. Congratulations, Sista!
