FowlManorQuilting Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 The checker flag flies for this one. What an outstanding design and color. The quilting makes it come alive and dance! A real smiler. Good for you, I'd have dibbs on it too if I was in the family! G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennan100 Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Oh Gerry! Freehand? I'm so proud of you! Bet your Mom is looking for more panels! Great job, I really like the designs you choose. Now take some time for Christmas!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Thiesssen Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Exciting stuff, Gerry! Nicely done. LOVE the colours - and you're right, the back is wonderful! Keep stretching those boundaries! L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elita@BusyNeedleQuilting Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Woman, YOU ROCK!! And to think that you said you couldn't do freehand! Where you been hiding that talent girlfriend? You did a great job on that quilt. Super impressive! Elita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GERRY Posted December 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Hi Elita, ever so far away: I guess fear of frogging had something to do with it, I'm a bit of a perfectionest, & I want to give the customer the best. My free-motion is so far from the best, I still find panto's far easier, & they look really good every time. But I'll keep plugging in there, & maybe I'll be a DIVA some day.

ramona-quilter Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Gerry, This looks fabulous. I love the center - all of it. The stipple and echo around the flowers and the curls. I like that inner border - wish I could see that up close. So you followed the Pam Clarke method. It really works. But I love the back the best. WHITE on WHITE. You get major points for your quilting and the courage to use white. You rock! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bekah Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Oh Gerry, My goodness you did an awesome job!!!!!! Congratulations I know how much you were dreading free-motion quilting. You had nothing to be afraid of. Now if I can just learn to do pantos. Of course you need to turn your machine on in order to do that. We have not had good luck with our shop, but a new year is coming. have a blessed holiday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathleen Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Gerry, If you were nervous it does not show in your work! That is just a beautiful work of art! Very impressive!! You give me hope that I too will do great things with my millie (or Ethel as I call her) Keep doing what you're doing! Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onesewise Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 Gerry..I haven't been on in awhile, but just came on and saw your beautiful free motion quilt! I'm in your old mold of doing pantographs! I'm still not good, but getting better...am learning how to line up so the pattern fills in right! You did so much quilting in that quilt...I'm amazed!!!Elaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
