Oriental Cranes...quilted by Kevin
This is a customer quilt/wallhanging that Kevin worked on. Beautiful Oriental fabrics that these pics don't do justice for. Lightly custom quilted to let the fabrics shine....larger panel has a window-pane effect. Smaller blocks are stitched in the ditch. Small vines are in the beige sashing with his free-motion "seaweed" in the flower border. Back side shows that design better. Thanks for looking

Beautiful! I've been (struggling) with an oriental quilt for a couple months --- this one gives me 'hope' I am working in the right direction. wish I could find that crane fabric- I've looked & looked without success. this one is wonderful! and the quilting is great too.

Ckcowl, are you looking for the crane panel? Blue Bamboo in Plymouth, Mn has a website and they do carry this panel because I bought a burgandy colored one just last fall. You may have to phone the store to ask because I don't see it on their website. I found mine in an area overflowing with Oriental panels, just folded and on a shelf. Good luck, Cindy
