LauraJ Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Was piecing this one about five years ago when we had to let my 15-1/2 yr old dog go. It was appropriate that I was doing this, and in the class we called it Broken Heart Quilt. It's the "Love Your Log Cabin" pattern in Still Stripping after 25 years by Eleanor Burns. All free-motion! Warm & Natural Batting, Metro Emb / Madeira Polyneon. Finally quilted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anita Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Great job...wonderful quilting. I like it Laura. I'm saving this to my favs. I made a quilt for raffle for a local humane society after we had to let my first dog-daughter go. I was so broken hearted and lonely. Making the quilt was very therapeutic for me. Anita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Linda S Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Very pretty! When you say "free motion," do you mean without a computer? I'd be awfully impressed if you could do that curved crosshatching without using a ruler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
