Happy Dance - PP quilt finished!!!
I have finally finished my Ice Fishing lap size quilt. It's my "winter"
quilt for my quilt rack and I absolutely love it. My first PP project too. The instructions rated it 4 stars out of 5 in terms of difficulty but that didn't scare me.....I just had to have that quilt!!!!! The PP of the blocks went quite smoothly for a first-timer and I'm sure I'll do another at some point. DH is still amazed at the patience required....You can take a peek at the pics in my More Quilts album if you have a spare minute Ann http://community.webshots.com/user/mrs_ducky

I can certainly see why you had to make that quilt! I bet it looks even
better in person - I'll be right over. Arr! Dancin' the Sailor's Hornpipe fer yer finished quilt!

You have captured the 'Essence of COLD' cause that is what I think of when I
think ice fishing. Once was enuf for this gal......more fun fly fishing ; ) Butterfly (don't go fishing any more and I really don't miss the 'fishing part' of it at all) "Ann" wrote in message news:JjgXe.261471$tt5.138718@edtnps90...

That absolutely shimmers! Is it done in all cotton or did you add some
specialty fabric to give it that effect? -- Louise in Iowa nieland4 at mchsi dot com http://community.webshots.com/user/louiseiniowa "Ann" wrote in message news:JjgXe.261471$tt5.138718@edtnps90...

Thanks Louise.........it's all unwashed cotton. The "water" was machine
quilted by meandering and the Ice crystals and fishies were stitiched in the ditch around each. Then washed. which poofed them out. Some poofed more than othes due to different shrinkage I presume.
