Rainy Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Well today there was a slight set back, as i was sewing on the edging i noticed a big mistake right in the middle of the Quilt so i had to unpick half the quilt and fix it so it will take me a day or 2 to get it back together again. On another note its looking awsome Iv named it the crazy quilt, there is no pattern at all but works soo well i really hope jed likes it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woops...I meant (when I said 'post' the photies) for you to just post them on the DOL General Dog Discussion forum. It'd cost ya too much to post out to all of us fat quarter people Rainy. We can always save the piccies onto our computers. What a bugger having to unpick! I HATE unpicking so I decided not to sew anymore...fixed that problem up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 How exciting. I haven't posted much about this, I didn't want you all to think I was giving you the hurry up. I am really looking forward to the quilt - and the memento it will be. Not of the fire, I don't need ANY reminders of that, but of the wonderful dol community pulling together to help me so much financially and emotionally. Seems a bit good to put on the bed,( not that I have a bed ) I think it will have to hang on the wall - when I get one Thanks guys, you must have all been hard at it for months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainy Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Ohh jed, this quilt is made for a bed not a wall, please use it. I have to say its not going to be a royal show winning quilt, this is only the 2nd quilt i have made so its not perfect but the best i could do.

Rainy Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Well guys I dont know how to say this and i am still in slight shock. A DOLer who wish to remain nameless has donated to cover the cost to not only finish the quilt but to cover postage aswell So a huge Thankyou is to be given to the unknown DOLer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainy Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Spent 4 hrs Quilting today its looking good I havnt made it thick because QLD dosnt get as cold as it dose here, also decided to use 100% cotten wadding so it will breath better. Im going a bit cross eyed with all the colours but the people that have seen it say it looks awsom so fingers are crossed that jed likes it :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beltar Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Thanks so much for all your great work on the quilt Rainy, it sounds as if it's coming along so well. :D I'm sure Jed will love it. And thanks to the lovely DOLer for the generous donation to complete it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Rules Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 The cotton wadding is great Rainy! That is all I ever have in my quilts now, natural fibres are so much better comfort wise and are also more fire retardent! :D Can't wait to see the finished product, you are so good to be putting it all together! Well done!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awwww, that's so good Rainy! I'm dying to see the quilt myself so I reckon you should post a sneek peek pic. :D I think the quilt IRL will be a surprise still because it will look and feel fabulous in a way that a photo just can't portray! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
