Around and around and around.......
 

I finished this pattern from JeanneS, the finished quilt measuring approx. 70" x 56" and decided I would have a try at quilting a spiral. I lost count after bobbin number 8 and needle number 3 and have never been so pleased to have finished a quilt!

Wow, love your quilt and the quilting is fabulous, excellent job on both!!! I have this quilt pattern saved as on my short list to finish a few this year, it's a lovely design.

It looks terrific. Did you have much trouble with it bunching up on itself?

Wonderful result. This pattern is on my 'to do' list too.

The overall finished quilt is just beautiful! Your workmanship is superb! Very, very nice!

Good looking quilt. Lots of quilting and it looks good.

very nicely done

Well, I did have one fold/pleat in my backing which went unnoticed until I had done about 18 rounds :( so I had to go back and unpick about 2" of each round to fix it...totally my own fault for being too gunho and not being careful when I turned the work. To make sure that didn't happen again I got into a rhythm of using my right hand underneath to feel for a smooth backing each time I readjusted the work and I also put a clothes peg in a particular spot on the outer edge so I would know when I had sewn a complete "circuit" or two and then I would flip my work over and check what I had just sewn. The further out I sewed the easier it got.

I love it!

You did a good job.

What a beautiful quilt!!! And the quilting is awesome!!!

Did you do it on your Juki? We have the same one.

OOh, but it was all worth it. Absolutely lovely.

beautiful!! what wonderful quiltings. it's amazing the way you quilted it and in such tiny circles.

Beautiful quilt! I really like the colors and fabrics you used. Can I assume that you did the quilting with a walking foot? It all just makes such a wonderful and eye catching quilt. Love it!

Really great quilt! Nice spiral job

Did you take Jacquie Gering class on walking foot quilting? I also made JeanneS quilt pattern but when I tried the spiral quilting it was on a 12" sq I just couldn't get to work right. But you did a fabulous job on your quilt.

Your quilt is so pretty, and very pretty circular quilting.

Wow, I love your quilting!

That is amazing!!! Great spiral!!!

it is beautiful, just beautiful. love the circular quilting. long arm?

Super, both quilt and quilting. BrendaK

Your quilting lines are so perfect! You must have a very good method. :o

Beautiful quilt and great stitching! The circles look so even. Did you use mono filament thread?

Well done! I really like the spiral quilting with the rectangular piecing.

Great quilt and quilting!

I want to try this quilting method. So attractive.

Thankyou everyone for your kind comments. Yes, I did do it with my ordinary walking foot, yes, I did watch a couple of you-tubes on spiral quilting and one craftsy class, and no, the quilting isn't that even and lovely....in some places it wobbles quite a bit but looking at it from afar it's not that noticeable!! We are, afterall, humans not machines. lol. And yes, I quilted it on the new Juki which is just the "bomb" as far as I'm concerned! That machine just ploughs along with a smile on its face and the little bit extra in "harp height" well and truly makes up for the slightly smaller harp width compared to the 710.

Beautiful quilt and quilting.

Lovely quilt and your quilting is very nice too!

great job! that is a lot of spiraling!

Awesome quilt.

Beautiful quilt, great quilting and colors. Great job.

The spiral quilting would not be for me.

Terrific quilt! Great color choices!

Wow, I just love your quilt! The colors are great and the quilting is awesome!

Beautiful quilting. Love the spiral pattern. It is so perfect

Beautiful! Love the quilting, I might try that, but on something much smaller

Stunning, love the quilt and quilting.

Very pretty, I like the pattern and the spiral quilting is great.

Hi ruby2shoes, I love the quilting on this. Can you give some more details on how you did it? Domestic or longarm? If longarm how did you mount and keep a continuous circle? Etc. etc. If you still have the quilt, could you lay it flat and take a photo, showing the quilting more? Thank you!!!
