Dexx sent me this quilt to long arm for his wife..it is for an anniversary gift.
Very hip, modern colors..love the fabric choices.

I wanted that sashing to pop out..so I didn't quilt it..but I quilted the corner stones...
I auditioned a couple different types of flowers in the center of each of the blocks...but decided on this one because of the rounded edges..kind of softened the look a bit...I wanted to mimic the one in the fabics but it didn't look right to me.

In order to make the sashing and flowers pop out..I wanted quilt a tight design in the side setting triangles and the outer border..so I did swirlies and "Charismah Curls"

I am pleased with the end result..both of his quilts will be flying back home today.

Of course I quilted this all on my INNOVA..all freehand..no pantographs or computer..Thanks for looking!

The pics are kind of blurry?? Weird

Beautiful quilting!
Great job,
what kind of batting? I'm looking at some Pellon batting, ever hear of it or tried it?
