annaquilts Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Remember a few weeks ago when I asked for advice one quilting with one arm? Well, I finished the quilt in time for my customer to enter it in our guilds quilt show. The quikt won first place in the pieced bed category. I'm so excited for her ! Here are a few pictures. Thanks again for the advice and the support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CindyT Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Congratulations! Very cute quilt and the quilting with one arm is unbelievable. That's a lot of stitches for one arm to stitch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quilting Heidi Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Wel lI guess we'll just have to cal lyou the one armed bandit! Way to go. I love the way you did the candy ribbon in the piano key border. Makes it look sort of lacy. Congrats to you and the piecer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annaquilts Posted May 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Thanks ! The lady who pieced this is amazing. There are a million seams and everyone of them is straight! It is truly a pleasure to quilt for her. Quilting with one arm was pretty scarey at first, the only thing I had to have help with was doing the stitch in the ditch on the diagonal. My BFF, Chris, came over finished the SID. Thank goodness for best friends ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda G. Craig Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Love your quilting, it really makes the quilt come alive! And with one hand??? Awesome. I was thinking the same thing as Heidi, I really love how you did the piano keys, I too thought it looked so lacey and so evenly done -- I really had to study it to see how you had achieved such a great look. And your echoing is just so beautifully even -- with one hand!!!!??!?!? Great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
