I actually did do some work on it just before we left Florida in April, but it has sat, untouched since we got back home. This is a pattern I picked up at the Sarasota Quilt Guild Show in Spring 2013. The pattern comes with the photo transfer ready to be applied to fabric. I intend to make it for my huband's garage. It is a wallhanging, and has some cute gears to appliqué on the quiltlet.
Yep, appliqué. And we all know that I still have not finished the appliqué round of my Self-directed Round Robin. My Self is not bitchy enough, clearly, LOL! I considered (for a nanosecond) having the round robin as my July finish; it will have to be the finish for August as the show is September if I want it to be part of the display, and I do!
I found the gears green backing at Rainbow's End in Dunedin, and I bought more than I need, so he might one day get his very own quilt...
Linking up with Melissa's (Sew BitterSweet Designs) A Lovely Year of Finishes, as well as Lee's (Freshly Pieced) WIP Wednesday.
That looks like it would be a fun project! Good luck on finishing it! Great colors too!
ReplyDeleteI love gears. I'm looking for a gear project of my own. Bike gears in my case. I can't wait ti see your finish.
ReplyDeleteMaybe doing the applique for this one will get you in applique gear for the round robin? This looks like a fun project.
ReplyDeleteAutumn colours! Warm and rich! :)
ReplyDeleteThat quilt looks really interesting. Will look forward to seeing it done xx
ReplyDeleteSuch vision!! It'll look great! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the Gear fabric. Our eldest son turns 40 next year....Yikes!....and I want to make him a quilt. He loves cars and weather, so will soon have to shop.
