KerriM Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 I love the silk quilt with all the beautiful colors. I've never used silk for a quilt before and was wondering if it's washable? And is there any particular place you would recommend to buy the silk. The bright colors really bring out the sheen and the quilting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisquilter Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 The quilt looks awesome Ardelle! I am so happy you posted that. I just purchased the swirls template from Circle Lord. What a wonderful company to work with! My e-mail was answered in minutes and then with a follow-up call from Circle Lord, my boards are on the way today. How awesome is that! I am not sure who I talked to, but he was the nicest man ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oma Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Bet it was Michael himself. Any time I've called that's who I've spoken to. Very, very nice man. Love my boards. My favorite so far is the Swirls, but Square Dance, which I erroneously call Wonky all the time is my second favorite. Seemed awkward at first, but then very easy.

Primitive1 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Ardelle, your quilt is just beautiful! I too did a CL swirls quilt that I finished this morning and it is sooo fast! I am thinking about getting the BFan boards...they look pretty easy and fast...and no lines to try to line up.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
