Art Deco dancer
 
I did this one two or three years ago, but just wasn't brave enough to quilt the arms,legs or face.It has been stored away all that time.I had no free motion skills then and I didn't want so spoil it.I am thinking of having a go at it now, but not before Christmas. Will keep you posted!!!

What a great quilt. The quilting you have done so far has great movement.

Wow, that is a beautiful quilt with the quilting mimicking the movement, or vice-versa!!!!

Beautiful. That background quilting really gives a feeling of motion to the dancer. Be sure to post the final pics.

We loved it. Beautiful. Lots of movement in the background. Are you sure it needs further quilting? Just beautiful. Great work.

Hi Iraxy,There is no quilting on the arms, legs or head . Somehow it just doesn't feel finished. I think I will have bite the bullet and at least try.
