My progress on the Emily Munroe Quilt...
Second row stitched using the potholder construction method.
Have I told you how many years I've been working on this quilt?
Four years...
For those that haven't seen the entire quilt
with all the blocks basted together...
Wool applique on wool backgrounds.
It's a beauty and a very interesting method. Enjoy your stitching.
ReplyDeleteYour EMQ is coming along beautifully. It doesn't matter how long it takes. It is worth your time and effort. :-)
ReplyDeleteSuch gorgeous work! Did you back each block or just turn under the edge as in the original? I adore this quilt.
ReplyDeleteWendy, I used a thin batting and then backed each block with fabric and then whipped stitched the wool over the fabric backing. Each finished block was then stitched to each other. This was actually the hardest part, making sure the blocks were stitched tight so the weight would not pull the stitches apart.
DeleteGorgeous!! Worthy for the time it takes to finish it!!
