Crown of Thorns Quilt
 

This is my Crown of Thorns quilt I just made. I pieced and long armed it. I was going to do simple E2E free motion flower. While it was laying on my table, I thought I would try out my new fine line blue pen. Before I knew it, I had drawn on several blocks. I kept thinking about Judi Madsen and her book "Wide Open Spaces" and here is my chance - I have wide open spaces!! Each negative space block was done in a different design. IT is about 65" x 90". I used Quilters Dream Wool Batting. The quilt is an Apricot and cream color... ( It looks pink in the photos) . It took me about 40 hours to Long Arm it. I used my Jamie Wallen Straight rulers and the boomerang rulers. I used Glide thread on top and So Fine in the bobbin.

Thanks for looking.

Beautiful quilt and I'm drooling over the quilting! Thx for sharing the pictures!

A great quilt.

Absolutely beautiful quilting.

Words really fail me! Your quilt is so beautiful in every way. I really think your ruler work is superb. I am sure that requires another level of learning and coordination. But, the end product is spectacular.

I got so lost in your quilting, I (almost) entirely forgot to look at the actual top - you know what I mean!
That is wonderful work!

The quilt top is beautiful! But the quilting is absolutely gorgeous.
