Iron Quilter 2 entries

Re: Iron Quilter 2 entries

I know mine was a last minute entry. I saw that it was going to happen one weekend and decided that I was way to busy to pull it off in such a short period of time, but then I went back the next weekend and ordered the max number of charm packs. Thought that even if I didn't get to use them, I would have gotten a good deal and I would stick them in the stash. How wrong I was when I opened the package and saw the beautiful fabrics... right then an there I knew I had to work up a design that would showcase these prints.

When I was cutting them, I made a mistake on the outside Dresdens and cut them from the dark to the light instead of the light to the dark and didn't realize it till I had them all cut. Figured I would go with it and we all see what the result was.

I am very pleased with my entry and there were several that have given me inspiration for future quilts. Good work everyone!

Happy mistake! The design is amazing!

Loved seeing all the quilts! They were amazing!
Glad I was too busy at work last week to lose any sleep over all this chitter chatter. It was fun to make a quilt with the Lovely charm pack, got a GREAT deal on them, and my Christmas present for my mom is done! Not big FaceBook fan, but that is ok with me. Doubt that I will do anything like this again because I did not like the pressure of the timeline. Just had to say I participated in it.
Need to finish up a little more work on the computer before work tomorrow. Already looks like a long day tomorrow as well.
So glad I have a week of vacation coming at Christmas!
