I'm pleased to have learned and practiced a lot with this quilt. (I'm also very glad I splurged and used the wool batting because I LOVE the weight and loft of it.) <br />Thanks for sharing your Oh Suz-Anna post with me. Yes, similar situation but still a bright and beautiful quilt!Karen @runsewfunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09975401086034999869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554017499067305278.post-9226438563598303332015-11-22T19:31:49.087-08:002015-11-22T19:31:49.087-08:00Thanks so much Heidi!

By about 2PM when I took these photos almost all of them had fallen. I have never seen a tree loose all it's leaves so fast. <br />Thanks so much for the quilt kudos and for stopping by!Karen @runsewfunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09975401086034999869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554017499067305278.post-14262382308110054532015-11-22T19:18:22.924-08:002015-11-22T19:18:22.924-08:00Thanks Ann Marie.

But it is a very pretty quilt. This reminds me of a similar experience when I made http://sewfreshquilts.blogspot.ca/2014/05/oh-suz-anna.html<br />The fact that you got some practice with fmq and machine finished binding is a plus. And having a quilt made with all that lovely fabric for you to use for yourself? What could be better!!!Lorna McMahonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01911462547010295684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554017499067305278.post-38372173241392514602015-11-20T08:40:05.433-08:002015-11-20T08:40:05.433-08:00Wow, beautiful!!Wow, beautiful!!Marysehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02000465859017119743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554017499067305278.post-16075556763179650022015-11-20T08:04:26.829-08:002015-11-20T08:04:26.829-08:00Color and value are key and it is a really difficu...Color and value are key and it is a really difficult part of the process for me.
