The Front Porch quilt

Post by Jasinta » Tue Dec 16, 2008 12:35 pm

Three views, I quilted it freehand, and this project is for my granddaughters school fundraiser, I used it to practice the stippling and freehand. I have a long way to go to perfect it though. And I'm embarrassed to say that it was supposed to have a white border, but I ran out of fabric.. oh well, live and learn.. this was so much fun to make, I'm going to make more! Thanks Eleanor for the inspiration!

What book is this pattern in? I have seen so many of these quilts on here and they are all just beautiful! Jasinta, I love yours! I can't tell that it is lacking a border...it looks great without one. You should do great on the raffle with this beauty! ~Abbigail~

I love your quilt! Don't tell anyone about the white border and they won't know! Or they will think "my, what ingenuity!"

I am putting this pattern on the top of my list for next year.

Your quilt is beautiful! I love the colors and am looking forward to making this quilt.

Abbigail - I need to buy the book too. The Front Porch Quilt is in the book "Quilts Through The Seasons".

Girl I just love your quilt!!!! Oh my goodness your fabrics are perfect for this! And I agree, if you do not say anything, nobody would ever know anything about it having a border. Looks great to me as it is. Well here I go, ANOTHER one I just have to try next year. LOL Yours is gorgeous. Great job!
