Here's my Chasing Chevrons QA quilt -- all finished! Thank you, Jennifer, from That girl... that quilt... blog for sharing your pattern and hosting this quilt along! This QA started sometime in November, 2011. I finished the quilt top on time with the QA, but never finished the quilt because I was afraid to quilt it. I now have the confidence to do an all over stippling pattern on a big quilt! Whohoo! I love freehand stippling! It measures a nice 71" x 71". I have to admit that this was not really one of my favorite quilts, but now that it is quilted I love it. Quilting really made this quilt!
In the photo the blue-background chevrons in the center get lost. They don't seem as lost in real life. The blocks were all cut with my Accuquilt GO! Baby dies. That's how I got the smooth finish of the chevrons vs. a bunch of HST.
I'm happy to link up with Richard and Tanya Quilts for the Link-A-Finish FRIDAY.
This is also one of my WIPS I set as a goal on my 2013 Finish-A-Long.
Oooohhhhhhh how I love crossing things off my WIP list! The problem is that as my list gets smaller and smaller I have fewer and fewer tops to "dress" the longarm. Guess I better get on starting some other projects! LOL.

Gorgeous! Love the background color, what is it?
What a great quilt! Congratulations on your finish. I have quilt tops that have been waiting for me to have the confidence to quilt them as I want--I can't imagine a world where I would feel I need to start more projects to have stuff to quilt. I'm jealous.
In love with the orange in this quilt---very "wow!!"
It 's wonderful. I love the colors!
gorgeous! I actually LUV the way the blue ones seem to disappear!
The colours in this quilt are to die for. Fantastic! I just got up the courage myself to stipple a large quilt. Good on ya.
great chevrons!
