This was a top I picked up at out guild swap. Already pieced and layered with the backing. I prefer to have a top to 'play' on, I get bored with plain fabric, so I snapped this up. Played with my clamshell ruler, and some straight line designs. Learned a few things too, so that was time well spent.
Once I was done with it (ie: it was quilted, and I had had my fun), I gave it back to the piecer, and she said it was a wonky basket...if I'd figured that out I would probably have quilted that area between the basket and the handle a little differently, but oh well. I probably would have oriented it differently for the photos too :)
Great job Michelle - love all the cool designs you used - clam shells are awesome. May I ask which ruler you used for the clam shells? Hugs, Nancy
