Prairie Quilter Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Here are some pictures of a quilt that was just picked up. It's the first quilt I have done for this customer, and I was a bit intimidated since I've seen some of the incredible free-motion work this lady does on her DSM. When she dropped the top off she gave me a copy of the pattern from a magazine and asked me to quilt it as shown. I didn't find that as easy as it sounded at first but it seems to have workd out OK. The customer was very happy with her quilt. Thanks for looking! Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shar Schmutz Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 I find trying to quilt "just like" anyone eles's work is extremely difficult, I am just no good at copying, and find it very confining. You did a beautiful quilting job, I'm happy you now have a happy customer! Congratulations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prairie Quilter Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Thanks, everyone. This is such a supportive and encouraging group! Originally posted by Pat C This is very nice Mary. Did you mark all of your quilting lines first? If so, what did ou mark it with? You did a great job quillting this! Pat C - no, I didn't actually mark any quilting lines. For the blocks I marked the circle that all of the curls/leaves/feathers were quilted around and marked the points on the circle that I had to hit at the end of one element and the start of the next. For the sashings I marked a large grid to makes sure all of the motifs were reasonably consistent. And then I sort of winged the border. Originally posted by Linda G. Craig Hi Mary!
