LibbyG Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 I already quilted a similar WH two years ago, so I had most of the ideas. This quilt has the added foundation pieced border and the flying geese centers. I was going to do straignt lines in the zig zag part, but I decided after quilting the feathers, that I liked how it stood out so I only quilted the line inbetween. I used CindyT's idea in the corner white part of the border and just made two feathers come together. Thanks, Cindy. I used Hobbs 80/20, So Fine on top and BL in the bobbin. If you look carefully in the two green borders on the sides of the zig zag, I used Linda Rechs design from her book. It's the curl with the four little feathers, two on each side. I really like the look of this design and hope I did it justice. She didn't want close stippling in the blocks. She specifically asked for it to be loose.

cathyh Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 Libby this is a very pretty quilt and your quilting is perfect! I love the zigzag pieced border and I think you made the right choice to leave it with just SID. I think the loose meander must have been harder than a tight would have been, you did a great job! Thanks for sharing. BTW, what is a WH quilt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CindyT Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 WOW, Libby! What a fantastic quilting job you did on this one! Great choices and great quilting! I always love seeing your work and this is no exception! Glad I could spur an idea for you on this one in those corners, and that you were able to put one of Linda's book ideas to use.

LadyLake Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 I was just looking at that feather curl myself, and decided I needed more practice before tacklong it on a quilt. You must practice a lot, Libby; your quilting lines are always intentional. I do like how the feathers come into the corner, too, and that you allowed the zig zag to stand out above the feathers. Wonderful job, as usual!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
