Astoria Column quilt
 

I made this quilt using the Quilted Photography software. I scanned a photo into the computer/program which then makes a grid to work with. This quilt has over 9000 pieces in it. I used half inch squares, ironed them onto a fusible gridded background, covered it tulle then machine quilted. Hope you enjoy it!!
The Astoria Column is in Astoria Oregon where I grew up. I have climbed it many many times!!!

Awesome work.

Superb quilt. Thanks for sharing the technique, very interesting. Very subtle colouration. Impressive work.

Oh, my, that is fantastic! It's beautiful and you did a wonderful job on it!!

WOW, WOW & WOWWWWW!!! Awesome quilt!! Great job! Astoria Column is beautiful isn't it! Been to the top myself too!!

Thanks for the compliments!! I love Astoria and climbing the column, it is just amazing!!! As a grade schooler, we would walk there by ourselves to play, it was just a short walk through the woods from our house, what fun we had!!!

Beautifully done. It is a beautiful quilt and a great memory!:)

Stunning quilt.

Amazing! How did you quilt it? Did you use a LA or a domestic machine? How close is your quilting? I am in awe of your beautiful quilt!!!

That's pretty cool.

What a wonderful way to keep a part of your childhood with you always, and generations to come will appreciate being able to share a part of your past visually.

Blows me away! Have never tried something like this - sure has caught my interest! Great job!

Very impressive and more patience than I would have...awesome!...:-)

Absolutely stunning!

I really like that. i have not heard of that software. It might make my job a lot easier, I still draw my pictures the old fashioned way. Thanks for the tip.

Hi!! Thanks for the kind words!! I quilted it on a domestic machine. I have a Juki and it was not easy to do!!! I pinned the tulle to the top and then stippled it. Probably about 1/4" to 3/8" apart.

That is amazing, I am sure that the Clatsop County Historical society would like to see that. Do you still live here? Amazing work, I have never heard of software that does that, Can you please tell me the name of it.

WOW! I hope you're entering this in a quilt show or contest - awesome!
