Quilt of Valor I quilted
 
4 Attachment(s)
I offered to quilt several of the quilts of valor my local group had waiting to be done. This is the first one. Man was it wonky! It's been sometime since I had to deal with full borders, crooked blocks, and wavy stripes since I don't quilt for hire anymore. I was so happy to get it done :)

I used Quilters Dream Poly for the batting, and a medium blue Glide thread.

You are very talented to take something as wonky as you describe and turn it into something so beautiful and true.

Beautifully quilted.

Wonderful job! I only quilt for myself and family. When I volunteered to quilt some charity tops, a local pro long armer told me that I would learn a lot about corrections & fixes. She was right!

Thanks ladies. Some of these quilts, with multiple people piecing them, are quite the challenge to quilt. Definitely a good learning experience :)

You did a marvelous quilting job. Yes, there are some quilters that are not more constant with their seam allowance and measuring.

This quilt is beautiful and I know the person who gets this quilt will love it.

Well, It isn't wonky now! It is absolutely gorgeous. Your work is perfect.

You did a fantastic job of straightening out that wonky quilt top, and I enjoyed watching the videos to see how you did it. It sure made me wish I had a robotic system!

Great quilting. I love the quilt too, but your quilting really finishes it beautifully.

Wonderful! Kudos to you for your patience !

Boston1954 08-29-2015 05:49 AM

Your quilting is amazing! I applaud anyone who can run one of those machines. I have to do mine by hand. Takes forever but I like it. Maybe some day I will have one done by a professional.

Sneed 08-29-2015 07:50 AM

Such a beautiful quilt. It is really striking!! I just finished one for the Fisher House at Ft. Campbell and seeing yours makes me want to start another using the red and white strips of which I have an abundant amount. Thanks for sharing...this is what keeps us going.

dellareya 08-29-2015 08:35 AM
