It is always a pleasure to work with Nan and Joe - they are the sweetest couple and the nicest people you will ever meet. Plus, they have been so patient with me. Thank you! :)
I used a combination of wool and Hobbs 80/20 for the batting. I used So Fine, and Glide thread for the top and lots of it! This quilt took me 70 hours to quilt. This is my first time quilting a Lone Star Quilt and at first I was a little intimidated. I wasn't sure how I was going to quilt it. I wanted it to be unique and all my own, plus I knew that I needed to have a lot of quilting in the quilt because that is what I do and what Joe and Nan like. So, I stared at the quilt for several months, then realized I better just get going on it. All the quilting designs were designed as the quilt was on the racks. Each design is different and free hand motion quilted on my A-1 Long Arm. |
Gasp, this quilt took my breath away. The American color scheme and star spangled quilting are gorgeous. This is the type of quilting I aspire to be able to do after I retire. I certainly would think this would make the QBs quilt of the week status. Well done!

Absolutely stunning
|
That is an amazing quilt. You all work well together as a team.
|
As always, your quilting is over the top, stupendous, beautiful... why is it that I stare at a quilt forever and can't come up with anything, and you come up with all these wonderful ideas?
|
That is beyond amazing! Just wonderful and your quilting is exquisite. The piecing, choice of colors is just magnificent. I can only dream of such.......
