    Default Autumn Rain

    Another MSQC quilt (Bordered Periwinkle) that has been languishing in the closet for quilting ideas. I finally found stencils that fit perfectly in the spaces, using Iron Off pounce chalk, and drew a variety of three leaves in the borders, with Crayola UltraWash markers. The fabric was so busy I just couldn't fathom FMQing it any other way. While I was waiting for another pantograph, I finished quilting it this past week and bound both this weekend. It now hangs in our living room.

    Very nice. I can understand why you waited to quilt it, the ever elusive design. I probably would have taken the easy way, stitch in the ditch.

    You managed to tame the fabric and design very well. I love what you did with it. Great wall hanging.

    I too recently learned of using the markers for quilting. A dream come true!!!

    Great finish...I can see why it sat waiting for quilting inspiration, but you pulled it off wonderfully. It must feel good to finally have it done.
