She makes the sandwich for each block, quilts them as blocks with batting and backing, and then sews the block together. Then she cuts strips of fabric and tucks 1/4 inch under on each (long) side, and covers the seams on the back by hand applique-ing the strips. She does really really detailed machine quilting - stuff that I would never have the patience to do on a big quilt, but it seems totally manageable in blocks. I was thinking for a quilt like yours, I would probably piece together a big nine patch with the blocks, and make a sandwich out of that, quilt the sandwich, and then do another. This would make less seams on the back, but still a manageable sandwich to quilt. Sorry, now I'm just thinking out loud. I'll leave you to it...looks great!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206413248184675781.post-26093866594346014212008-07-10T20:41:00.001-07:002008-07-10T20:41:00.001-07:00By the way , it looks fabulous!By the way , it looks fabulous!Chickpeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11761699710811601332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206413248184675781.post-27917885988332549792008-07-10T20:41:00.000-07:002008-07-10T20:41:00.000-07:00Looks like your using the quilting theory method o...Looks like your using the quilting theory method on that quilt...are you going to use bias binding in the back? or some kind of tape?Chickpeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11761699710811601332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206413248184675781.post-13350185220553351632008-07-10T15:11:00.000-07:002008-07-10T15:11:00.000-07:00My sewing machine is broken, too! : ( So sad.My sewing machine is broken, too! : ( So sad.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13853358217997694203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206413248184675781.post-76438238339158260742008-07-09T17:40:00.000-07:002008-07-09T17:40:00.000-07:00Hey, what did you do on that quilt?

Well, I don't hate it, but I do not look forward to it at all. BTW, I love your fabric prints - especially the trees.
