Chips and whetstones


Recommended Posts

Wow, you all have me blushing here. Thanks for all your compliments. I hope my customer doesn't go nuts when she hears the price. It's around $500 including the wool batting and tax and everything. We'll see . . .

I generally don't give her an estimate, because it is hard to predict how long her quilts will take. I ended up with close to $21 per hour on this one. does that sound fair?

thanks again for all your kind words.

Karol, your quilting is wonderful on that beautiful quilt. My question is -- how did you accomplish the feathers around the design -- totally freehand or did you use some type of a template or ???. You must have been quilting a very long time to perfect such a design.:D Love it. Dar

I've been longarming part time for two and a half years. I used a sliver of soap to mark the spines (freehand) and just feathered them freehand. Once I got going, it was easy. The hardest part was the pebbles because the thread blended with the fabric, and I couldn't see where I'd been!
