August 10, 2007It's Finished!I'm going to try and take a better photo outside but for now, I HAVE FINISHED THE SUFFOLK PUFF/YOYO QUILT! Yay me :-)
Begun: Last week of April 2007 Finished: August 10th 2007 Fabrics: Mostly cotton oddments and offcuts from my projects, other people's offcuts and unused fabrics from the op shop and oddments and discarded fashion samples from the Reverse Garbage Creative Reuse Co-Op in Marrickville. Details: 1,600 suffolk puffs made with the 45mm Clover Quick YoYo Maker - 40 puffs wide x 40 puffs high Made as a wedding present for my brother & his fiancé for the 19th August 2007 Number of seasons of Farscape watched in order to retain sanity while sewing all the little puffs together: 2.5 (plus a season each of Torchwood, Dr Who, Battlestar Galactica and Stargate SG1) Will I ever make such a large project in such a short time frame again? Hell no! :-) Entry posted by Sarah at August 10, 2007 12:27 PMCommentscongrates and job well done you beat the deadline
That looks amazing. Congrats on finishing it on time. Now maybe you should go post a short "I'm alive" post on the glb-knit list because someone was wondering what happened to you. Posted by: JoVE at August 10, 2007 10:42 PM
Well done! Job well done! Looks great, bet you are sick of the sight of yoyo's now! Posted by: Faye at August 11, 2007 8:55 AM
I have to admit that I was skeptical but it really does look amazing - what a journey it's been with a fabulous (on time) result!! Posted by: Rebecca at August 11, 2007 12:31 PM
Wow, that is fantastic! Congratulations on finishing it! Can you make me one now? :) Posted by: Patty at August 14, 2007 4:07 PM
Wow! That is an incredible and very lovely quilt in a prodigiously small amount of time! I hope your brother and his wife were suitably thrilled. :) Posted by: Kate at November 12, 2007 7:03 AM
