Quilting Heidi Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 This is a quilt I just got done. It is going to be raffled by our guild. The top was donated and one of the other members of the guild fixed a few patches and added an outside border. I decided that I'd make it a 2 for 1 by using white cotton sateen on the back...you all know how much I love wholecloth quilts! It is 70 x 70. It was a lot of work but so worth it. The feathered wreaths on the pieced blocks were done freehand. I used Deloa's little One for all the SID and the cross hatching. I free handed the cc's and used a stencil for the large feather wreath. I used metro thread on top and magnaclassic bobbins in the bobbin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I only used Hobbs 80/20. I wish I had used wool as it would have shown the quilting more on the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
