Default An old idea, revisited and a Judy Niemeyer DWR

In the 1980's quilt motifs especially applique were put in quilting hoops and used as wall decorations. I am part of a "School House" at ThimbleNThread in July. Five clerks and teachers give a small mini class. I am going to delve into stencils and using them. I wanted a way to show samples and remembered the hoops. They are still available.

The Judy Niemeyer DWR is made by a friend and I had the privilege of quilting it. It was a challenge with those curved edges but all is flat.

That has to be one of the most beautiful designs I've seen for a DWR. I tried one - once. Sure didn't look like this!
Love your quilting and the piecing the gorgeous. Thanks for sharing

Stunning DWR and your quilting sets it off beautifully. I really like the design of this one. May have to look for this pattern once I finish the Neimeyer one I am already working on ---- slowly.
