The quilter requested two different motifs on the back- and foreground stars. The idea was to push the background stars back and have the stars with the coloured points somehow pop. I am unsure this was achieved as the meandered background stars tend to pop more than the coloured ones.
Interestingly
enough when I did the very first quilt for this quilter, she seemed somewhat
upset because I did full custom quilting and she preferred larger and less
quilting. After that, it was exactly what
I did for her.
However,
with this quilt, she requested more dense quilting in certain areas. I suppose the quilted part of any quilt, grows
on you after a while.
She came to fetch the quilt but later in the afternoon phoned and said she wanted more quilting in the stars with the coloured points. Back on the frame, the quilt went and afterwards looked like this.
In between cooking, cleaning and quilting, we got 5 stray kittens of different ages to bottle feed. This is luckily only for a couple of days (I dearly hope so), so life has been a rather balancing act this last week. Here, hubby is trying to hold all of them, do not overlook the state of our clothing (his pants) with the mess these little ones make while being fed and all fighting for the same bottle.
