Louisa

I am making some progress on my Louisa quilt top , today I appliqued on all 48 leaves then added just a few of the sashings but had to lay this out on the floor to see if I like it , I bought this as a kit and that is the first time I have ever done a quilt that way so I may have chosen different fabrics for the backgrounds and also the sashings , I find it really busy , however I love these fabrics by Moda , so nice to work with . Lots of stitching left to do yet and there is a large floral border to go on after this part is sewn together , I will get there eventually;-) I numbered each block before picking them back up so I will know which way to sew them together .
Thanks for stopping by !Sheila

  2. Wow, I can't imagine appliqueing 48 of anything. I don't know why I love the look of applique but do not enjoy doing it by hand.
    I think your quilt looks great. I don't find it busy. Can't wait to see it with the border added
