LadyLake Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I'm on a roll finishing some of my own quilts. This is a wallhanging that is going on our diningroom wall. I played around with the eccentric attachment to my Quiltazoid for many of the circular spirographs. Thank you to those of you that have your samplers posted on the QZ site -- it got my ideas going. This is my first try posting photos from Flickr: BatikCirclesWallBack by LadyLakeQuilting, on Flickr BatikCirclesWallFront by LadyLakeQuilting, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyLake Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I forgot to upload a closeup of the border. The traveling leaves are modeled after Marcia Steven's Burning Bush Leaves/Golden Threads pattern pack: http://www.goldenthreads.com/shop/product/burning-bush-border/ They are quilted using Rainbows Turning Leaves #857 (gold and green), which is one of my current favorite threads: https://www.superiorthreads.com/shop/category/?Brand=Rainbows I tried something different with the batts. I used Quilters Dream Poly Select, instead of QD Cotton Select for the base batt, with QD wool for the top layer. I was not sure if the poly would be strong enough for the quilt to hang right, but with the top being made of all closely woven batiks and a strong back, plus heavy even quilting, it turned out fine.

apylinski Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Beautiful. I don't know how all of you do such beautiful quilting. I'm only beginning and still afraid to actually put a quilt on my Millie. I guess I need to get brave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyLake Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Don't worry, Ann, it will come. I didn't touch my machine for the first three months that I had her.
