Charisma, you have done a spectacular job! I love how you treat each border as an individual, yet all the quilting flows together so beautifully. I'm honored to have been a part of creating this lovely quilt.

When you have so many people invested well..that's all the more to please.
Linda had told me she liked so many of my regular designs..feathers, Charisma curls....ect.
Parts of this quilt is flourishy ...so I knew how to quilt those areas ...but I knew I needed to add something more.
In the outer border I added bamboo....I love the way it turned out...what is more asian than bamboo? It's natural and earthy and I love to add that type of element. ( I seem to always add leaves...flowers..ferns...nature is good ;-) )
I outlined the gold border, then put a feather in the flower border...the two small borders on either side got big pebbles...I did ruler work on the black border surrounding the center medallian.....what a FABULOUS quilt! All involved did a wonderful job....I hope you are all happy with the end result.
I quilted everything freehan on my 26 INNOVA...I used hobbs polydown batting.
Thanks for looking.

Another stunning quilt with equally stunning quilting. As a very inexperienced long arm quilter, I appreciate that you share your thoughts about how to quilt each one. It's part of my education process!
