Quatrefoil Quilt Finished!
 

I made this Quatrefoil quilt for my Mother-in-law for Christmas using the Sophie line of fabric by Mary Kuval. It's about 5' x 6'. I started out not loving the fabric because I picked it as something that I think my MIL would like and it's not my personal style, but I love the result. I quilted it myself with diagonal lines through the 2.5" squares and center blocks, stippling on the cream, some outlining in the blocks 1/4" in from the seam line, and I tried my first FMQ other than stippling or loops on a finished product. I did a vine with leaves in the border. It came out OK, but since I used red thread to match and the border was busy it was a safe place to stretch my FMQ skills on something other than a practice square. I also used the flange binding technique from a Missouri Star tutorial. I love the result and being able to machine bind the whole thing!

That is very pretty and a really nice job. You have one lucky mother in law.

The colors and the quilt are very pretty. I loved the tutorial by Jenny on the MSQC and hope to use the pattern sometime.

nicely done

This is absolutely beautiful!

Just lovely! I've been looking at this pattern for awhile now and you have inspired me to get going on my own quilt. Thanks! :)

Absolutely beautiful, I love the colors you used. I'm always amazed at how the simple blocks sometimes make the most beautiful quilts.

What's not to love? Beautiful quilt.

I did the FMQ on my domestic, all I have. It's a Pfaff Performance 5.0 and after getting it my FMQ improved, so I have to credit the machine to some extent!
