Huzzah, all together! They look awesome!

Zenna did you make the quilt underneath? It looks neat, I like the watery feel it has to it.

I wish! My grandma made that quilt. She dyed all the fabric herself and when I was visiting, I saw it and claimed it lol. I then painted my bedroom to match it and proceeded to send her pictures of blue and purple things until she sent it to me!

It's gorgeous with a cozy fleece backing. She's an amazing quilter and she's the one who taught me to sew.

Wow, she dyed it too!? She IS amazing!

Yeah, she is.

I've been debating doing the same for this quilt. I'm going to try to hit the fabric store is weekend (I was waiting to see how they looked together to decide on colors) and if I don't find any fabric I really like, I may still dye it myself.

This is wonderful! I hope to enter as well.

Oops I guess it's over. They look awesome! Congrats to everyone who did it!

Update! I'm waiting for a warm weekend so I can set up a dying station outside and dye my fabrics for the quilt. I've been pretty quiet lately (2 jobs and I have just started a program to get my teaching license), but I will still get this quilt done.

Oh wow it is beautiful! We should do a squares exchange so everyone gets the feel of the fun!

pony_magick · « **Reply #148 on:** July 02, 2015, 07:24:00 PM »

Any progress of getting it put together? Been wondering about this for a while now.

Sorry, guys; it's still on hold. In April, we had to start preparing for a big move. I wrapped up both of my jobs, we packed up everything we own into storage, stayed with my in laws for two weeks, and then drove across the country to Indiana last month. The house is 115 years old and was in terrible shape, so we've been working non stop every day and I've only just been able to start doing a few fun things in the past week. I've been pretty much non existent on the forums. I'm still planning on dying the fabric and will probably get all the dyes out in August (we still have a lot of work to do in the bathroom, mudroom, and yard). I have all of the squares in my grandma's basement (she lives next door to the new house and has a HUGE sewing workshop in her basement) and haven't forgotten about you all! I feel badly that everyone got their squares to me on time and I've been so slow. *hides*
