Terry's Gorgeous Tie Dye Quilt and My Total Failure

Hello everyone!

I promised you pictures of Terry's pretty tie dye quilt in this VLOG:

Someone asked WHERE I got the aprons.  I got them on Amazon.  Just search aprons.  I love that they have pockets.  Terry said Wanda loved it.

Unfortunately, it is so very hard to show quilting definition in a photo.  I don't know why.  The light has to be JUST right.  Nothing like seeing it close up to see the true stitching.

Here is the front:

And
Here is the back.
The MOST amazing thing about this quilt is the tie dye itself.

I went over to Terry's the other day to try my SECOND ATTEMPT at the craft.

I did two small pieces.

They turned out SO UGLY, I can't stand to look at them.


Terry says she wants them.

She will probably cut them up to make the overall effect go away.

It needs to go SOMEwhere, lol!  I am giving up that adventure for good.  Even with Terry's help, I screwed it up.

So that is all I have time to talk to you about today.  I want to make another cute -- more babyish -- quilt for Luke.  Maybe some receiving blankets.  Not sure.  Need to hurry though.

Be back soon.

Hugs, Joy

    Terry's quilt is lovely.
    Gonna show us your latest tie dye? A friend and I spent a day dying using different techniques while I had a fun day my efforts weren't great LOL! I enjoy sewing and quilting more than the dye processes. And now I know where to go to get special fabric done.
    Enjoy your blogs and blog.

    Gerri Here!
    I think you are a hoot! You are an inspiration, you make me want to sew garments again. I have been quilting since 2009, and have won viewer choice in Canada a # of times. Keep up the good work. You should blog more often.
