The sun came out. Here it is!
I wish I was better at taking pictures. I am not happy with how these came out but I don’t want to take my children through that ordeal again. Apparently it is very heavy.
The measurements are approx. 62 x 72 inches, a bit smaller than it was supposed to be. Oh well.
So, if you would like this quilt for your very own comment on this post and you will be entered into the drawing for it. Comments on all other post in April will go towards my general birthday give away.
Also, if you can guess the actual number of quilting lines it took to quilt this baby I will add 10 extra entries into this quilt give away for you. Remember the projected number of quilt lines was 176 if my lines are all straight and even. (which they are not) It is possible for more than one person to win the extra entries.
**Leave your guess with your comments in this post only.
Please, only comment once on this post. I’ll announce the number of quilt lines at the end of the month along with the winner.
The quilt is absolutely beautiful. I love all of the interesting patterns and how you chose to quilt it. It looks even better in person. Here’s to hoping I see it more often… 🙂
Oh, and my guess is 207 lines (I should have counted when I saw it!!!)
I think the photos look great, but seeing in person you really see how beautiful it is. I’m not very lucky, but here’s hoping.
I can’t believe you are giving away this quilt. 152 lines of quilting
Okay so I commented on the quilt already, but apparently this is where you have to comment! So…my guess is 115. I really have no clue honestly, but Im feelin’ lucky! …not really, but I’ve gotta guess something! Love the quilt! You did a BeAuTiFuL job!
My guess is 148. Bonnie wanted to guess 168, but since the number has been used, I will change hers to 164. I couldn’t pull this up at Yellowstone, because I didn’t have the right connector. Computer use has been a major pain here in Idaho.
i gave it some thought, and i was going to guess 181 – but since someone else already guessed it i will go 182 (a little ‘price is right’ action going on here)…it really IS a stunning quilt…i can’t wait until i make my first quilt…i am in a quilting group and we have made 2 baby quilts for a local pregnancy help center, but mostly all i did was cut…i am hoping to make my very own quilt by the end of the year – but i will be giving it away – i am planning to make one for my in-laws but it is going to be simple squares sewn together, but i have to start somewhere, right?
please please come live with me beautiful quilt! you will be well loved by every member in my family parents, kids, and kitties (you will probably be fought over)
Love it!!!! I love all of your creations, but this one has such a fun, whimsical spirit to it! I would love to hang it on my bench in my dining room!
My guess is 171.
I think it looks amazing! Straight lines, schmaight lines:) It is an eclectic quilt —beautiful and modern. As for guessing how many lines it took you….I’m going to go with 162. I’m crossing my fingers and toes on this one!
