Pinky sent this quilt for LAQ.

She is gifting it to her brother. It's for his college graduation..he is an engineer.

She wanted an all over swirl....which I think just compliments it so nicely. ...there is something about an all over swirl that just makes you happy? or in this case compliments the geometric squares, and rectangles ...softens them ...but gives them some life.

I quilted this freehand on my 26 Innova.

I used hobbs polydown batting.

Thanks for looking.

You are so right, curves look great on straight line quilts.

The quilting reminds me of the rings raindrops make in a puddle. Great looking quilt.
