one of the last customer quilts off the frame


Recommended Posts

Hello everybody this is one of the last quilts off the frame the quilt was made from off cuts from a Mexican shirt manufacturer.

All of the plaid pieces were cut outs around the sleeves and interesting areas like that,

so the pieces were irregular at the best.

The customer did a great job piecing this quilt.

She added scraps of her own to pair up with the plaids.

This was a fun  quilt to stitch nothing fancy but she did love it

 

sorry for the quality it was a picture she sent me the colors were very nice not muddyed up at all

 

here is the corner with one blockstraight lines and a little loop design. this quilt was going to her son so no feathers LO

 

Here it is on Millie I love how the design created a star in the middle of the block...Subtle but it is there..

Thanks for looking. 

This is the only picture I can get loaded

The lines on the border makes the flying geese pop.  As you say, the quilting in the middle is subtle and does make the piecing/fabric the focal point, your  outstanding quilting does standout when you look closely.  I believe that is the way quilting is supposed to work.  The piecer stands in the foreground, while the quilter awaits patiently in the shadows.  Wonderful job.

This is a gorgeous quilt. Love the quilting. Are the straight lines done freehand or with a ruler. Asking from a newbie perspective.

Hi Regina, the ones in the border are freehand and the ones in the four patches are done freehand the ones in the center of the block ( because they are on an angel) are with a ruler. So I guess the answer is both. Thanks for the nice comments Regina
