Geri's 30's reproduction quilt

Geri is such a sweet lady. She sent this gorgeous top that she pieced and appliqued to me for quilting, with directions for me to do whatever I wanted. I decided on crosshatching, Terry Twist, McTavishing and a simple motif in the center of each "star" block. Hobbs 80/20 bleached batting was used with white thread throughout. Sorry, but I failed to take a picture of the back of Geri's quilt. I was so thrilled with her beautiful front, the piecing, colors and applique that I never thought about the back.

BRAVO to both of you!! Stunning quilt and quilting!!

I love repro's paired with white using traditional blocks and applique border. It's just so homey looking.
