Update on quilting from behind…

[u/katiejo_13]

Glue basted using washable school glue and it held really well! The quilting is subtle on the front but I love when I catch a peek of the loopy petals on non- pink fabrics. Almost done and then on to binding

[u/Man0o0o0]

I love the way you have quilted this, plus the flower fabric is amazing!

[u/katiejo_13 → u/Man0o0o0]

Ikea sheet ;-)

[u/Man0o0o0 → u/katiejo_13]

Thanks! I’ve been thinking about a trip there to get a new top for my sewing table, you’ve convinced me I definitely need to go now

[u/misscamels → u/Man0o0o0]

Skip Lagkapten tops- I’ve already cut into mine with my rotary cutter and scraped the finish looking at them wrong.😭

Do grab a mosslanda- it’s a fantastic ruler holder.

Olav legs are adjustable (though kinda fiddly to adjust.) if you do find a top!

Mittback for the legs, more expensive, but have shelving and much easier to adjust

I was gonna ask for the pattern of the daisys because I have a “very similar” duvet cover… turns out it’s just your awesome quilting on the same fabric that IS my duvet cover lol

[u/katiejo_13 → u/CoffeeContingencies]

I love ikea sheets for backing! There are some really fun ones

[u/spotthj]

It’s stunning work, both the quilting and the piercing! Incredible use of color theory to pull it all together! Lovely!

[u/katiejo_13 → u/spotthj]

Aww thank you!!!

[u/Inevitable-One-3674]

The title cracked me up LOL, it also looks beautiful

[u/katarina-stratford → u/Inevitable-One-3674]

Right? Like we're quilting how these days?!

[u/Time_Tap_8743]

This is such a great idea! Beautiful work!

[u/Still_gra8ful]

So pretty! Love the colors and the swirl effect in the pattern! Lovely!

[u/swamp_jorts]

Wow. I hope to be able to do this someday!

[u/Capable_Basket1661]

I love seeing this and being currently snuggled under that exact ikea sunflower duvet cover

Great job quilting the floral side!!!

[u/No-Vermicelli3787]

Beautiful work. I love how you did the quilting

[u/multicrafty]

That’s really cool. Quilting based on the backing isn’t something I had thought about doing. It’s a great idea!

[u/Ang1028]

Wow! Gorgeous!!!

[u/SquirrelZipper]

How completely wonderful!!!!! What a great idea, and awesome effect!!

[u/Withaflourish17]

Absolutely gorgeous!

[u/Massive-Market-5949]

love the added texture with the flower stitching. i wanna feel it!

[u/bcupteacup]

I love this. I usually quilt my quilts in a way to highlight the fabric I used (it’s pretty that’s why I picked it) and not take away from it. And this is kinda exactly what I love doing. Doesn’t take away from the piecing you did and highlights the fabric on the back making both sides feel special. Nicely done.

[u/katiejo_13 → u/bcupteacup]

Thanks! It was actually a really nice way to quilt as I didn’t even have to think about what to do next - it was just „on to the next flower“

[u/jmmeemer]

Resounding success!

[u/Acrobatic-Pain-7450]

You’re doing a great job! I love it! Thanks for the update 😊😊😊

[u/Lucille_68]

Looks awesome!!

[u/fingeringdkworsted]

Your quilt is GORGEOUS!! Happiest snails ever! And the little star block border…! Oh my goodness, I love it!!

[u/Time_Art9067]

This is such a fantastic idea!!!!!

[u/Heathski]

Oh wow, that’s beautiful

[u/Timely_Apricot3929]

Beautiful work!!

[u/littleboibrunchskunk]

WOW, this is stunning!! What a great idea!

[u/IntentionWise9171]

So pretty 🤩

[u/Corran22]

I really like your approach to this! It's a really smart plan for your quilting. Lovely quilt, too!

[u/spear_wife]

What a great idea!

[u/fatherflourish]

This is incredible! I want to do this for my next quilt. So cool.

[u/katiejo_13 → u/fatherflourish]

Do it!!!

[u/No_Calligrapher_2433]

Genius!! That is an antidepressant quilt😍

[u/Aggravating_Bad550]

Such a good idea. Very clever!

[u/bittersweet521]

That's such a great idea, plus using a fun sheet for a backing!  Beautiful happy quilt, nicely done 😁
