My "T Stands for Thelma" quilt is home from the quilter.
I thought I would try white binding, I know that's sort of a quilting no no, but I like how crisp it looks, I think it was a good call.
We (we being me and my long arm quilter Connie Lancaster at Quilts Plus) decided just a nice all over pattern would work best for this quilt top.
This pattern by Miss Rosie's Quilt Co also goes by the name of Bibelot. It would make a great choice if you're looking for that perfect project for the Schnibbles July sew along.
I decided to hang this quilt in my guest room.
The olympic trials on TV lately helped with my production.
Love "T Stands for Thelma"! So nice to see the quilt top become a quilt. The quilting definitely does the quilt justice, and I agree that the white binding is the perfect choice. What a lovely guest room you have created with your works of art!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so I think I'm going to lose in the guessing the number of yoyos in the vase, but love the quilt! Weird question - what color paint is that in your guestroom...love it :)
ReplyDeleteYes, the white binding is an excellent choice!
ReplyDeleteThat is just breathtakingly beautiful...and "T" could stand for Tierney too:-D! This is definitely on my list to do, one day. Now, 81 quilts--that's impressive! Love, XOXO
ReplyDeleteLove your finished T quilt, nothing nicer than a finsh. Just completed 2 bindings on red and white quilts,1 more to go this weekend. Your guest from looks even more inviting now with ThaT quilt. LOL
ReplyDeleteIt's so beautiful. It makes a great two color quilt.

ReplyDeleteLove your blog and seeing all your beautiful quilts! What a lovely guest room too! I have a question though....I have noticed that you use alot of different quilters to quilt your quilts. Can you tell me (us) how you choose them and how long it takes for some of them to quilt your quilts by the time you send them off to them? Months, days???? I am looking for a new quilter and have been wondering about using someone I don't know. Or do you know all of these wonderful quilters? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteIt's a true beauty, Thelma.
ReplyDeleteYour T quilt looks just perfect in the guest room ! The quilting is just perfect for this quilt ! I see your Eventide quilt on the bed :-D
ReplyDeleteThe guest room looks like it was made for that quilt! it's perfect in that spot! And I adore the white binding. I think if you went with any other color/pattern, it would have that crispness.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful; love the white binding! Looks perfect in your guest room.
ReplyDeleteThe white binding looks really striking! Perfect choice.
ReplyDeleteYour "T stands for Thelma" quilt is even more beautiful quilted! Now aren't you tempted to go take a nap in that room so you can look at it as you start to doze?
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt!!!!! I can't wait to do mine. Thanks again for the pattern!
ReplyDeleteI love 'T stands for Thelma'!
ReplyDeleteI think the pattern should be renamed "T for Thelma"! Love the red and white and it looks great in the bedroom.

ReplyDeleteYour Thelma Quilt looks great. You'd better buy a bigger yo-yo holder!!
