Callie_Grace Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 I just took in my first customer quilt this evening at guild! This is the first quilt I will do for anyone other than my Mom! So needless to say, I am excited (and nervous) and just hope that my idea translates well into the quilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callie_Grace Posted August 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 I can post pictures now! I was a little brave {or crazy} when I offered to quilt a top for a customer who was working on a Moda Bake Shop tutorial! Her tutorial was posted today, so you'll have to take a look! <a href=" title="Tammies quilt by Callie_Grace, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8170/7888249750_51df68f1c9.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="Tammies quilt"></a> Here is a close up detail of the quilting while it was still on the frame. <a href=" title="tammies quilt in progress by Callie_Grace, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8180/7888719082_6f7bc9eb54.jpg" width="500" height="374" alt="tammies quilt in progress"></a> You can also take a look at my blog calliegracequilts.com for even more pictures. I think it turned out pretty well for my first customer quilt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
