T Row Studio 1,576 Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 I just finished a quilt that scared the crap out of me...Wide open spaces. The quilt was basically a whole cloth with a few pedal and circle shapes applied to it. Then they wanted texture around them. I did a texture I am calling soft graffiti. curves, circles, paisley feathers. with some spikes for interest. Once I got started it went well I just did slight variations of the basic shapes I started with. This 97 x 111 quilt took up some real estate on my frame for about 5 days. I delivered it to the customer yesterday and she was very pleased. Thanks for looking Oma, jmcclannan, Gail O and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RitaR 647 Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 WOW! Terry, so Very Pretty. The only thing I could imagine were the Terri Twst outlined with a single row of feathers and echoed. I couldn't figure how to connect. Yours is SO much better!

Kwiltr 269 Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Very nice! It takes a huge amount of tenacity to produce the quilting on these kind of quilts, when there is so much negative space, but so rewarding when you put that last stitch in! I saw your comment on my Olaf quilt Terry regarding Krista Withers. If ever you get an opportunity to do a workshop or seminar with her, I think you'd find her approach quite helpful for this type of quilt. T Row Studio 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AnnP 164 Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Thanks for sharing the fear as well as the beautiful quilting on this. I didn't know if I was the only one that didn't know what I was going to quilt on a customers quilt with the fear of her not liking it. Great job! (yes its a job when quilting for a customer) but.... Oh so much fun, once you get in there and do it. Thanks for sharing! T Row Studio 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam 434 Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Well done Terry! Wide open spaces scare me too! I stare at it until I figure how I want to break up those large areas. Feathers work great for large areas. T Row Studio 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
