This was a quick one but quite effective I think :
And the back :
I used stippling all over the quilt, now that I finally figured out why my thread was breaking every minute on my GrandQuilter during another project earlier this year. I had forgotten to pass the thread through the guide at the top of the needle, which means that it was chafing on the sharp edge of the needle’s eye and was breaking continuously. It does pay to RTFM once in a while !
This king size quilt is for me for once !

Love! I tore a page from a recent “Martha Stewart Living” where she had framed bandanas, and I thought it would make a great quilt. This is awesome!
Thank you very much, Kelly !
I love that quilt. The color is terrific. Great job!

Thank you very much, Ricci !
Wonderful quilt!! Great colors and great work!!
Thank you, Judy !
I love your quilt. I have so many memories of my dad carrying bandana. This would be such a wonderful way to commemorate him.
Great quilt. I had one when I was a child and my wife and I want to make some for our children but we are having a hard time finding quality bandanas. Any recommendations?
Hi there, sorry for the late reply. Finding a range of different bandanas was a struggle. I found mine in different shops on ebay. Here are a few :

but there are lots more out there.
Quality varies a lot though, some are very fine, other have a tighter weave. It is hard to know online.

I have been wanting to frame some bandanas, but this is even better. Where did you find different styles of bandanas? The ones I find are all the same pattern.
Hi Sandy, finding a range of different bandanas was a struggle. I found mine in different shops on ebay. Here are a few :

but there are lots more out there.
Just make sure to check the sizes as each shop has slightly different sizes and I have had to cut down mine to the smallest size available.
Best of luck with your framing.
