I am pretty chuffed to have this one finished....
it was over two years in the making!
It is Judy Newman's "Museum Medallion" pattern,
with the main fabrics- the pink and yellow borders,
purchased from Amitie!
The rest of the fabrics came from my stash/scraps,
with some special additions from blogging friends,
around the world!
Apart from the long straight seams,
it was entirely hand pieced....
And hand quilted with some Finca
and some Aurifil thread!
The backing is one of those extra wide fabrics,
because this quilt is a monster at 90" square!
The backing is rather plain but that meant there
were
no joined seams to cope with!
So a pretty label was a fun way
to add a bit of interest...
Why "Martha's Medallion", I hear you ask?
My sister lives at Mt Martha,
and many happy hours were spent stitching this
while visiting her!
I would have liked some better outside photos,
but there was a distinct lack of quilt holders
available!
Looks like it's time to start planning my next hand
piecing project!
Any suggestions?
Happy sewing!
