Fun and wonky string quilt
4 Attachment(s)
The September 2014 issue of AQS magazine had an article by Gwen Marson about contemporary string quilts. That was the inspiration for the design of this quilt that I did for my niece, who is about to have her second child. Also, I recently viewed one of Angela Walter's Craftsy classes, called "dot-to-dot" quilting; the designs she taught there were the basis of the quilting I did. This quilt was really fun, and I'm very happy with how it came out. The back is flannel. I quilted on my LA, and then used a decorative stitch on my DSM for the edges of the purple sashing.

That is a beautiful quilt and your quilting is amazing. I have a LA but I hate ruler work. Maybe I just need more practice, because yours is just so great I want to learn to like it.

It's quite dazzling! Terrific quilting too....well done!

I didn't think I was a jealous person, but when I see such beautiful quilting I do get a twinge. I love the quilt and your quilting compliments it beautifully.

Interesting! It makes me think of confetti. In fact, I might name it that... or maybe "Celebration!" (since it's for a new baby?)
Naming it celebration sounds perfect! K |

|
Love the quilt and the quilting is amazing!
