First of all, thanks to everyone for wishing Mr. CnW a happy birthday. Who woulda thunk a man of his age (old) would get his feelings hurt by not making the blog cut? I’m still smiling about that. He read each and every one of the comments and you all made his day!
Now, on to quilty stuff.
Remember these?
This is what they turned into.
I was a little concerned about how busy the neutrals were, but once it got put together, I decided I like it. The pattern is called “Glory Bound” by Bonnie Blue Quilts.
I think I’m going to tea dye it or distress it or whatever you do to give it an aged look. I’ll have Mary from Quilt Hollow help me with that part since she does it to most of her quilts. Okay Mary?
Went to the guild’s quilt show in the park today. I’ll post pictures once I get them edited.
Hugs, Anne

Oh Anne. . . it's beautiful! I love the idea to overdye it. . . I think there is a recipe in one of the Blackbird books. . . (I want to try it too!)

Wow - it really pops, Anne! Love the neutrals you used!! I could come over with my hammer and distress it for you - LOL! Seriously, I think tea-dying would be really nice!
Cheers!
WOW WOW WOW - that baby is a stunner - love everything about it. I'll be interested in seeing it tea stained and it will give it a real antique look I bet since it's so scrappy. It's beautiful Anne - you did a great job :).

Now I do like what that pile of triangles turned into! I would have used all the different background pieces, too.
Wow! I love it! I love the scrappy look of it and I think dying it will add that little extra wow factor.
Wish hubby a belated birthday for me! Hope it was a good one!

I've had that pattern for a while now, Anne. After seeing yours, maybe that will inspire me to get moving on mine. I even have the fabric set aside for it as well.
Yours is simply beautiful!
I have those fabrics and I love what you did with them. It's a great looking quilt. Tea dying is fun and makes the quilt look antique.

I fell head over heels in love with that quilt...oh, and to age it would just put me over the edge! Thanks for sharing. Now I'm off to check it out because I think I have that pattern! Nancy in WI
Wow, love your quilt Anne, and I agree, overdying it will make it even better.
Your "Glory Bound" quilt turned out great! Wasn't it a fun quilt to make? I enjoyed making mine and hope to have it quilted and bound soon. Happy belated birthday to Mr. CnW. His cake looked delicious:)
I just love it! I've seen several quilts lately in blogland from Bonnie Blue Quilts patterns...I've never made one, but since I'm loving all the ones I see...maybe I'd better get one of those patterns!
Great quilt! It has my name all over it.
Love the quilt! I made this quilt too. I used Triangles On A Roll because I happened to have some that size.
That is a gorgeous quilt top Anne! I am curious about the tea dying are distressing...tell us more about it when you do it. Thanks.
Simply Beautiful!!!
I love that quilt Anne. It's wonderful.
These quilts are beautiful!

I love how all those pieces turned out and I think tea-dyeing it, will give it "character" (as my father-in-law used to say). :-)
We love your quilt here at Bonnie Blue Quilts!!!
