I did this Foldy Stuff pineapple design with crepe backed satin gold fabric, and then I had a vision how I wanted to finish the back with velveteen and a piping of the same. I saw the quilt as being tied to the back with gold threads to accent the velveteen. The two small pillows were made first so I could work with the piping that I made to get a feel for the quilt and how to manage it. I entered the project into the Williamsport (Pa.) Quilt Guild show this past fall and won the Viewers Choice award in the misc. catagory. I had not won any awards for quilting and was amazed and pleased. I must say, this is one of my most favorite projects. I am so happy with the result, and wanted to share it.
