This is the quilt I made it took about 9 months to complete among other things.


I have a Janome 11000 Machine. We made a lot of the pieces of lace on the machine a various designs were used throughout the quilt. I have a great Janome dealer and they have a lot of various classes to teach all the aspects of the machines. They are a great couple and certainly give us all the support you possible want. Hope you like the look of it. It fits a double size bed and goes to the floor each side, and I also added a pillow sham on as well.

Oh, Dixie, how gorgeous!! I have a wonderful Janome dealer like yours as well, lots of classes with the machines & quilting, isn't it special to have lessons like that, and come out with such a masterpiece? Brava!!! Marji

Amazing quilt! I can see why it took 9 months to finish. I can't imagine tackling something like that. I really love it, and I know you had fun, and probably some tears while you were in the process.

Fantastic!! What a ton of work you have in this. Now you have an heirloom to pass down. I don't think I'll ever tackle a project like this. I'm more into instant gratification.

Thank You all for the lovely comments you gave me about me quilt. Yes I'm very happy with the way it turned out. I'm making another quilt in satin for my daughter and another one with large squares using the quilt as you go method, this is certainly going to be much quicker will post them when I finish them, a bit of a way to go yet though
Thanks Again all Dixie

Oh my Dixie, in my dreams I couldn't have come up with all the techniques you have in this quilt - how absolutely stunning - if it were a queen size - I would love it in my own room - the color is wonderful. Isn't it wonderful that you have great people to help you learn your craft?
