Currently the largest task on my mind is the enormous King Beige Quilt I am making by special request. Beige is not the easiest, most-forgiving or prettiest of colors, and therefore, this quilt might be one of the hardest quilts I have EVER made.
Last Saturday I basted the monster on my Mother's basement floor (I could find no other space large enough for such a task)!
Tell me, what do you think? Too much beige? Or did I make it work?
I used roughly 288 safety pins!!!!!
I am now proceeding to quilt it, I am starting off with straight lines, sewing about 1/4'' on the inside and outside of each side of each row and column. Upon completion I am going to stipple the inside squares and stipple the border. Any thoughts? Suggestions? I am thinking dark green and blue binding!!!! I better get back to quilting, I'll let you know when I resurface!
