GrannyW5 wedding quilt quilted by feline fanatic
6 Attachment(s)
GrannyW5 entrusted her wedding quilt for her son to me. I sure hope I did it justice. GrannyW5 will have to chime in with the pattern name as I don't remember it. But it consists of curn dash blocks alternated with 54-40 or Fight star block variation. The result is a great interlocking circular illusion in the white fabric much like is achieved in so many other quilts that use the 54-40 or Fight star (like Tennesse Waltz, Bonnie Hunters Celtic Solstice and Emma's wedding quilt). GrannyW5 said she liked feathers which is great because I like doing feathers! I did feathers in the "circle" parts rotating the direction of the feathers to emphasize the circles. I used a stencil in the churn dash blocks called Hearts and flowers (what is a wedding without hearts and flowers? ;) ) then I did curved cross hatch in the black squares and a rams horn swirl in the triangles coming off the square.
Glide thread in white was used and Hobbs polydown batting. Here is the quilt before quilting [ATTACH=CONFIG]460142[/ATTACH] And here it is after [ATTACH=CONFIG]460143[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]460144[/ATTACH] A couple of close ups [ATTACH=CONFIG]460145[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]460146[/ATTACH] And the back which looks so pretty. Unfortunately most of my shots came out blurry, this was the least blurry [ATTACH=CONFIG]460147[/ATTACH] |
