Boy, it's really difficult to show the FMQing on this project!
It's a variation of an orange peel design. I started by making the loops on the diagonal starting with the little yellow squares, then the little black ones, then continued to the larger flower blocks - then back again. Then in the other direction it was green, green and larger flower block and back again. It made a pretty design on the top.
I went along the inner purple border and went into the border when I hit the tip of quilting described and then made a little circle. I also made a circle in the corners of the purple border.
On the outside of the purple border I went along and only popped out at the corners. In the green I made one loop that sort of looks like the design in the inside. On the rust I made three loops. I'm not sure why I did this but I did.

| You can see the faux flange on the binding. A lady in the group is a long arm quilter she makes a flat faux flange so she can quilt as usual on her long arm by cutting a strip 1 inch, sewing it on at 1/2 inch seam then continuing on with what ever she is putting on (in her case where she was showing me she was adding the faux flange between two borders that were close in the same color). Anyway that is a way to get the flange effect and be able to have quilted on a long arm! |
I also turned in the 9 patch quilt as you go project!
