Black Rules Finish

Not really, I still have to sew the hanging sleeve, but for all intents and purposes, this quilt is done.

Somebody is gonna have to tell me how to photograph a black quilt and make the colors glow like they do in real life. The quilt is AWESOME, and this photo doesn't show any of that.

The quilt is 47-1/2" wide by 54" tall (about 120 cm x 137 cm)

Magnificent work. You written superb and best quotation on it. The colour selection is perfect as well as the font is wonderful. I also do the same work with birthday quotation.

Love love love it. I am not the person with advice on getting the colors more vibrant. I have struggled with that myself, just figure that I probably need: better camera
better camerawoman
better lighting

Love this photo with the greenery and fence contrasts! Check out "Shoot That Quilt" at http://www.hollyknott.com/stq/index.htm for lots of solid suggestion for photographing quilts (all colors).

I find the colors glow the most when I have the quilt in full sun - close ups rather than full on shots.

p.s. I still don't have a "good" photo of Plaid Happens for this exact reason (brights/plaids on multi blacks).
