Default Mandi's Taekwondo 9 Patch Quilt, quilted by Gramyx7

Mandi sent me this beautiful scrapy 9 patch quilt top. It is for her 14 yr old daughter, Her daughter picked out all the fabrics, and said , all I want is Bright Orange thread,
Mandi told me her daughter is into Taekwondo and wondered if i could incorporate that some how, so I went to a few sites, and I saw this little figure, about a inch big.. I traced it off my screen, and I kept drawing it until I got it big enough to fit into one of the 9
patches. I put this little guy in each corner and I did a feather meander all over the rest of the quilt.

We used Hobbs Polydown batting...

Thank you so much for sending me this quilt.. I had a lot of fun quilting it for you, and if your daughter looks real close, she will find 5 or 6 very tiny butterflies through out the quilt
You should have the quilt in todays mail !!!!

Thanks for Looking

I really appreciated the close up of the quilting . It is my favorite part to do. I love the pattern, haven't done that one yet. It looks great

What kind of thread did you use for the machine quilting? Is it an extra thick type or is that just the way you did the close up?

Its great whatever you did, thanks for posting
