Jubilation of my Jubilee
Here is my Jubilee top with the four borders attached!
The zig zag looks bold and heavier then the spikes, so I may add a small cheddar border to the spikes to balance it out.
There is no right side up, but I wanted to see the difference with the borders.

You done good, Lori! A wonderful quilt to celebrate your 50th year on this earth. The center is the part I like best but it all works well and is so your style.
ReplyDeleteLori.....it's absolutely beautiful! You rocked it! I love everything about it......especially the two different borders! Woohoo!
ReplyDeleteLori it's just gorgeous. It's a perfect quilt to celebrate your jubilee year.
ReplyDeleteFantastic. And when you do get to the quilting it will truly awesome, a perfect jubilee celebration.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the finish, it looks great!
ReplyDeleteWow! Beautiful! How big is it? It looks very large. How will you baste it? I've notice on the hand quilting project I'm stitching on now that I didn't baste it well enough.
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy...makes me realize I need to get going and finish mine. Good job! Your quilting will make it just shine.... :)

ReplyDeleteYay! It looks gorgeous. I love those two different borders on the quilt.
ReplyDeleteWow Lori it looks gorgeoous!! I love the borders! More chedder sounds like a great idea :0)
ReplyDeleteWow. So clever of you to make a quilt to commemorate your 50th. I love the center the best, too, but those flowers and leaf in the urns are so ornery and artistic!
ReplyDeleteI may have to make one for my 60th...next :0).
ReplyDeleteNow did you get all this done in 2012?
Love the colors and the borders.

I am in AWE! Sure wish I would've thought to do something like this when I turned 50 - maybe I could start now and make a 60th birthday quilt - wonder what I would call it? Anyway, congrats on your progress - it looks really, really good!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Will be stunning when it is all quilted. Congratulations on another wonderful quilt!
ReplyDeleteI am sooooo happy for you!!! And so jealous at the same time, that so many things have taken precendence over my Jubilee. I will get back to it - you have inspired me!! Lori, this is truly beautiful. I do think a small cheddar would balance perfectly. I love the date and initials - I just might have to copy that :) if you wouldn't mind.
ReplyDeletecongrats Lori, it's an amazing piece~!!!~

That's a wonderful quilt. You're so right - there really is a lot of room for quilting! Do you have any ideas yet what you want to do for it?
ReplyDeleteWhat a beauty. I look forward to seeing your great hand quilting completing it.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Lori! Outstanding quilt commemorating your special year! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteWhat an accomplishment; you should be proud!
ReplyDeleteVery very nice!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! I love it!
ReplyDeleteWow what a way to celebrate your big year. It's fantastic, hope it dosen't take another 50 to get it quilted. Lol
ReplyDeleteLori it turned out so beautiful. I'm so far behind on mine due to the Scrap Squad so it's on the back burner for now. I really love yours. Hugs
ReplyDeleteVery cool! You will have so much fun with all that quilting space!
ReplyDeleteit's triumphantly awe-inspiring to say the least......
ReplyDeleteDitto all of the above! Love the two different borders!
ReplyDeleteSo incredible! I absolutely love your quilt and can't wait to see it quilted! Very inspiring to see quilts like this 'in progress'. Thanks for sharing.:)
ReplyDeleteReally amazing Lori!!! You've done yourself proud.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! What a great quilt!
ReplyDeleteWheeeee! Great job!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing the jubilee top! It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'm in awe, Lori. It's a stunning tribute to your 50th birthday. Way to go!
ReplyDeleteIt is stunning Lori, I can hardly believe my eyes. Love the different borders and think you are right about a little bit of yellow to go with the spikes ;-) Might use a two coloured binding for it. Yellow with the spikes and green with the sawtooth...
ReplyDeleteLovely , can't wait to see what you do with quilting! Love the borders!
ReplyDeleteStunning!!! Love all of it!! Are you hand quilting? Which ever, it will be lovely!! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteBlessings
Wow!! Looks fan-tabulous, Lori!! Well Done You! Just love it.
ReplyDeleteWonderful - love your colors! Congrats on your finish! Just love this...
ReplyDeleteWOW. I think the wider, bolder cheddar and red border adds so much pizzaz. Great job!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous! Love everything about it - keep celebrating too.
ReplyDeleteYou know, this is one of those moments where your speaking voice comments to the screen "ahhh, this is awesome." I said it. You heard it… ;)
ReplyDeleteLori,
ReplyDeleteJubilation for sure!! Awesome Quilt!! I know the quilting will make it even more amazing. Congratulations.
Dramatic -- artistic -- memorable -- a wonderful blend of old and modern in colors and design. It's beautiful, Lori. You should be very proud of yourself, and you WILL have fun with all that space for quilting.
ReplyDeleteThe perfect Jubilee Quilt to celebrate wonderful life!
ReplyDeleteI know there will be some amazing quilting to top it off :)
