Top!

Presenting the Rambo Bright flimsy!

 I love it. I hope the bride and groom love it too.

 The quilt top is 91" square. The groom is 6'4." It might fit him.

 Although I refuse to apologize for poor pictures (I blame the camera), I will absolutely not post pictures of the completed quilt unless I can find a lighting solution that will work for my pathetic camera. I'm still accepting donations for a new photographic device.

What else should I say about this quilt top? So many things went well: the math worked out, the colour distribution is pleasant yet jumbled, and it is scrappy and huge - exactly the way I designed it.

There shall never be a pattern written up for this quilt - I couldn't if I tried hard. T & H are getting a thoroughly unique item.

  2. It's beautiful.

    Try taking your photos on overcast days. The bright sun's not our (photographic) friend.

  3. When I make a scrappy masterpiece, I tell people it is just like a haute couture Paris fashion - one of a kind and worth it! And yes, a cloudy day is best for photos with most any camera...

  7. It's beyond "pleasant"! It's awesome!!

    As for photography tips, I'm in no way skilled but natural light + picmonkey editing works well for me.

    Thanks for linking up to Friday Felicities!
