Prairie Quilter sent me this wall hanging....LOVE IT!
I feathered it and used gold metallic thread by Superior threads.

I did this all free hand on my INNOVA.

It turned out lovely! I am pretty sure she will love it too!

You have once again blown me away with the quilting :shock: When someone sends you a quilt do they request certain patterns or do you match the quilting to the top :?: :lol:

It works both ways..in this quilt Prairie usually just lets me do what i want..she trusts me. Some people tell me exactly what they want..and I try my best to do that.

Beautiful!!!! Thanks for sharing your quilting. I'm just learning and like to see ideas to quilt with different piecing designs. Your work is so beautiful. My goal this year is to get better at quilting on my HQ16.

Wowsers Charismah! Beautiful quilting on a beautifully pieced top. I love how you made the feathers spiral in the corner squares. I think it compliments the pieced star beautifully and really does make it elegant looking. What kind of batting did you use in this?
