    Default Not so sure what I think of this quilt

    I happened to be passing by packing a quilt and someone stopped me on the street and asked if I was a quilter and I said I was and she asked me to quilt a couple of quilts she inherited, the first one was made of fabric from in the 70's and was washed and really frayed on inside (I will post pictures of it another day) and this was the second quilt I quilted for her. It is very bright so I just did a leaf pantograph. The last picture is of the back (please let me know what you think of the stitching on back). Thanks for looking.

    You've done a super job on this! Fun to see "inherited" quilts being finished.

    You have done a super job. The back looks fine. You have made a quilt out of a quilt top. If it can't be used, it's no good, I think. INMHO

    Your choice of quilting design is just what this quilt needed, well done.
