There's a tute on this board by Eddie called "Machine Stitched Cathedral Window Tutorial". It looks like these windows. I don't know how to post a link to it. I tried it and it was a lot of fun.

I do like this adaptation to a point....I have made two cathedral window quilts and it is a labour of love for sure. It took me about two years to complete each one..... I have to say that I love all the tutorials MOSQC does and look forward to this one but I do prefer the original traditional design!!

Oh my goodness that is beautiful. You are sooooo talented. My mother made several pillows by hand years ago and I love mine, but DO not hand sew, so I thought just admiring mine was all I could do. Now you have opened up the possibility that I may be able to do this by machine. I will be experimenting...THANKS for sharing and thereby giving me some encouragement. Off I go to experiment.......

That is so pretty! And a big hello from a former Blue Springs resident. I'm missing the snow here in GA but we may get a little dusting this weekend.

If I could box you up some snow, I'd send you some. We have at least 2-3+ feet piled everywhere. Roofs and docks are falling in. I'm ready for spring.
