This quilter not only used rose-printed fabric as the main attraction, but even some of the matching fabric had roses or other flowers. Then she placed 4 rose applique blocks in the corners to get this amazing look.
This quilt
will be sent to Australia as a gift for her daughter. I chose a flower for the
edge-to-edge design in most of the quilt and then just ruler work around the
appliqued roses.
The second quilt where Waffle Weave was used as backing, this one too worked equally well. Here, however, I did custom quilting with plenty of detail.
A shop owner from a nearby town wants to have soft cuddle throws made and sent fabric to test.
I am not
sure what the name of the fabric is but it was a nightmare to work with, way
too much stretch and movement in both ways and I had to admit I don’t see my
way open to quilt with it.
When longarm quilting for others, one gets to see so many different and beautiful quilts and I realise I won’t live long enough to try them all.
I was
really drawn to this interesting setting of blocks but knowing how impatient I
am I also knew that I would never get around to even figure out the pattern,
let alone make it.
I think this is a stunning piece.
This was a UFO I discovered in my sewing room almost two years after we moved to the new house. I however had little free motion quilting to do over December and I tackled this one to finally finish it.
I am extremely proud of the quilt I made using only scraps from my collection, in keeping with Bonnie Hunter's philosophy of using what you already have.
