Great job on the quilting. What type of thread did you use?

Maia B 03-14-2011 07:39 AM

Wow! That's a great top, and your quilting adds so much! Superb quilting! Great example of artistic synergy between piecer and quilter! It inspires me to make a simple top of great fabric, then send it to a brilliant longarmer!

WOW!! Beautiful quilting. Your work reminds me so much of Green Fairy's. Here is a link to her blog with some pictures. http://greenfairyquilts.blogspot.com...ans-quilt.html

As a beginning longarmer myself, I love the details. Can you please tell us how you did this. It looks like all free hand. Did you create a template for yourself for the dragonflies? What kind of Longarm do you have?
Thanks!

Interesting design, I really like your color combination!!

Wow pretty where did you find that fabric?

labug 03-14-2011 09:02 AM

Great Job!

camlyn 03-14-2011 09:26 AM

I usually use the A&E from Dallas Thread. Im not a thread hog, like to have lots of colors, but my Gammill really likes this thread and I dont have to fuss with it much...

camlyn 03-14-2011 09:27 AM

It was a customer quilt, so I have no idea where she found it. Im not even sure who made it... Sorry Im not much help..

Kitsapquilter 03-14-2011 09:29 AM

Nice quilt...loving the dragonfly fabric. You did a great job of quilting, too.

camlyn 03-14-2011 09:30 AM

Thank you!! I take a coloring page and cut it out for the outline, otherwise it would look like a baseball bat or something, then I use 505 spray - place it where I want it, stitch around it, do the inside free hand.. The background fill is all free hand. I have a Gammill Classic that I bought used 4 years ago, its a real work horse.
Once again thank you.

I love it when I get to let the creative juices flow... Most of my customers let me do "my own thing".. The quilt Im working on now is another that is soo much fun to do. I love it when there is some empty spaces to do fun quilting in...
Thank you..
