bobbi Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Been working on some customer quilts, so, here's one of them from my friend in my hand quilting group... She's too funny - she started this way before her granddaughter got married - it's now been over two years. She just kept adding leaves but got bored on the last border and it's a bit sparse as far as continuity of leaves goes. So in the places where I imagined she should have put leaves - I just quilted them in... LOL! Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbi Posted July 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 I originally planned to McTavish the background, but I didn't think the "ghost" leaves would show up so stippling it was! Johanna just loved it! I LOVE when they appreciate my quilting ideas... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanaFuller Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 I love the ghost leaves, what thread did you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbi Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 @Ann - I used Omni top and So Fine back. FYI: For my Ultimate 1, the combination of those two threads makes for the best stitches and tension. Thanks for looking and liking everyone!
