A blog about enjoying life including grandchildren, family, travels, quilting, knitting, and whatever else happens -- Everyday is exciting! -- We are very blessed. -- And we are Loving Retirement!
For some reason, my mind wrapped around this design and the pattern just made sense so it was fairly easy to stitch with one little glitch - I had to travel stitch on those curved lines - I found another place where I need practice!
I took Leah's advice and quilted a small quilt instead of another practice sandwich. So I also finished a small quilt which I'll totally reveal at the end of the month!
I've never tried the cucumber vine quilting but I love the way this looks - like you I'm not completely comfortable with traveling back over my stitching but I like this pattern enough to try it! blessings, marlene
After struggling with bare branches and tree roots Cucumber vines was a welcome change. I will use it often. Thanks for posting on my blog and suggesting that I repost.
Your cucumber vine looks great! I need to practice traveling on a curve too. Not the easiest. This one took me the longest to do, so far.Can't wait to see your reveal!
Good job! I loved Cucumber vine, too.
ReplyDeleteCucumber Vine has become my all time favorite. I like it even better than stipple!
