    Default Huge Twister Quilt

    I am so proud of my cousin! She called me and asked if I would quilt a quilt for her? ( she has given me permission to post and show pictures about it). She chose an allover Ribbon design to have quilted on it.

    Well just a little background information she has never sewn before, much less done designing of a quilt.
    She seen a twister tool and a friends house and so went and bought it,took it home and played around with it. Her niece was getting married and decided she wanted to make something for her. In the meantime she went on a trip to Hawaii and fell in love with these fabrics in The quilt.

    She came up with this design, absolutely Amazing! and then I received a call with her asking I don't think I want to put just a plain back on it, I said this is your quilt there are no rules and gave her suggestions... This is what she has came up with.

    The purple side is the front (her nieces favorite color and the back is In Blues nephew-to-be's favorite color)

    I like the floral, reminds me of a Hawaiian quilt I made for a wedding couple. Nice colors and quilting!
