Janette Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 I haven't posted in a while, as things have been hectic.... so much coming in at the minute... This quilt has taken me 37 hours to quilt and my fingers are so stiff and sore now..... although I enjoyed working on it, I am so glad that I don't custom quilt all of the time... relieved to be back to the pantos now for a while... I don't know how all of you custom quilters out there do it... LOL its intense..

Tamarack Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Beautiful quilting Janette! I know what you mean about enjoying custom quilting but happy to be back to pantos. Custom takes a toll on us physically and mentally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue E. Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Janette, the quilt is gorgeous. Your quilting is wonderful. I really love how you quilted the border. Great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie H Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Nice job! I really like the curly/swirl designs in the border with the feather and the flower with the swirl in the middle of all the white parts of the nine-patches. EDITED: I meant to ask Is the edge of the quilt straight or curved? It looks interesting but it may be the camera angle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janette Posted June 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Beautiful quilting Janette! I know what you mean about enjoying custom quilting but happy to be back to pantos. Custom takes a toll on us physically and mentally! It certainly does, I have been waking up with very stiff fingers all week from the ruler work....

LibbyG Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Janette, I like the way you designed the quilting. Putting the feathers around the block is a great way to pull the design together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheagatzi Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 holy moly, it's gorgeous! So worth the time and effort...I know it's mentally and physically draining - but just step back and admire your gorgeous talents! What a reward to see that!

meg Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Wow! 37 hours is a long time! I bet you're glad to be done. You efforts weren't wasted, though. It's beautiful, Janette. I bet your customer loves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathyh Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Janette you did a wonderful job with both your design and your quilting! A few leisurely pantos and I bet you will be raring to get back to custom where you shine. I feel your pain, I recently finished a quilt that, including ripping a lot to change the back, has more than 40 hours in it. I am sitting still tonight with the beginning of what feels like a very bad cold, so I will try to post some pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
