Thank you all for the messages you left on my last post. It was nice to learn more about some of you and your quilting beginnings. It’s incredible how a chance influences our lives…
Only today I managed to take more pictures to my latest quilt made using a kit from Jinny Beyer. My camera doesn’t like at all these colors or the combination of them, I had to modify the pictures a lot to make the colors look real.
This quilt was a challenge, it tested my patience ! I am glad I passed the test !
I made a lot of things I hate: sewing many-many Y seams and piecing diamonds.
For years I did not order this kit from Jinny because I told myself :”I don’t have enough patience to cut and sew the inner border”.
But I did it ! These are borders made in Jinny’s style. I used one of her border prints, the design of it has bilateral symmetry.
Every piece of the border is the mirror image of the next piece. Very easy to make using transparent templates and Jinny’s explanation.
For the black pieces again I had to make templates and sew other Y seams.
It was not hard at all to make it, but you definitely have to be in a good mood to make things you don’t like.
It is quilted very simple, with wavy lines, I think quilting took me 5-6 hours.

You have far more patience than I. Amazing!
Jen says
I'm working on a similar quilt and I LOVE the quilting you've done. I never thought to do something like ribbon candy for quilting on it. I think I may just have to follow suite!
You did a great job!

Salutari bolnaviorului 🙂 Sper ca sunteti toti foarte bine acum.
Quiltul este tot minunat 🙂 Sincer n-am inteles cum ai facut borderul interior, stiu numai ca e perfect, si pare putin in relief, ai mai dublat vatelina dedesubt? Sau iese in evidenta doar datorita quiltingului? Materialele pae mai pline decat un bumbac obsinuit.
Este in mod cert un quilt deosebit.

You should send Jinny some photographs.
Lynn says
Very Pretty!
Annie Schaefer says
Geta- Very beautiful and yes I agree with Carol- you must send pics to Jinny- I'm sure she would be so pleased to see how wonderful your quilt turned out.
There is no end to the talent you have! You are incredible!
