Bowtie Buddies is finished! Hooray! Barbie Vanderfleet-Martin from our guild long-arm quilted it for me and I love the way it turned out.
I've been experimenting with my photos now that I have a new computer but these all look a little dark to me even after being "enhanced."
The back.
And the label with the mini-bowties :) So cute!
This is a little quilt I made in 1983 and finished in 1990. I wanted to try Prairie Points.
The back with those 'so identifiable' 70s fabrics!
A detail of the quilt I made for my granddaughter in 2003 . . .
. . . and another of my grandson's quilt the same year.
I quilted this top last fall and donated it to our historical society for a holiday fundraiser.
Uh-oh, there may be an orphan block quilt in my future.
And the real thing :)
Happy quilting!

No doubt Barbara, you love to play with bowties!
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are amazing ! Bravo :))
What a fantastic finish. By turning each row of bow ties it really gives some great movement to the design. You must be a bow tie expert. It's fun to see how different each one looks. My dad always wore a bow tie. I guess they still make them for men.
ReplyDeleteLovely bow ties!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great collection - it is clearly a very adaptable block! Congratulations on your finish and the cutest label! It puts my labels well and truly to shame - just hand written on the back of the quilt.
ReplyDeleteWhat a Bow Tie Bonanza! It is nice to see your finish and the label with the minis was such a great idea.
ReplyDeleteBow Ties blocks are so flexible and fun. fun collection of the real thing too!
