WOWSER!!! I love the red and white (I'm a big fan of white in quilts!), and the quilting is just stunning! Well done--show us more of your work, please!

Elizabeth A. 08-22-2008 12:18 PM

Ohhhhh, ahhh, wooow! :D I'm currently working on a red and white quilt myself, yours is wonderful. I've seriously been considering giving a tub of quilt wash with it, but the recipient swears by vinegar. What do you think?

Oh and how many times did you wash your red first? I think mine was washed at least 5 times because the color kept running.

jbsstrawberry 08-22-2008 12:22 PM

Absolutely beautiful!! Stunning quilting too!! Perfect all around!!




*Side bar LOL...Elizabeth, try throwing about a 1/4 cup of salt in the water. It sets in the dyes. (I got that from the back of RIT fabric dye. It always seems to work. But I do put white vinegar in EVERYTHING I wash too)

Elizabeth A. 08-22-2008 12:24 PM

Thanks for the salt tip, is that epsom, kosher, pickling, or no matter?

Moonpi 08-22-2008 03:16 PM

Your points are just so sharp, and the quilting itself just sets them off beautifully! Wow!

Wow!! Maybe someday I will be able to stitch like that.

swimmom 08-23-2008 02:38 PM

I too, would love to more of your awesome quilt!!!

butterflywing 08-23-2008 05:12 PM

wow!

what do you use to mark it before quilting? the designs are too beautiful.
i'm happy if i can stay 1/4" inside the seam with a very straight line.

thecompletequilter 08-24-2008 07:46 AM

I only marked the circles to mark where I would quilt the feather wreaths. I used a "Marvy" air eraseable pen. I love to do feathers and do them as much as my customers will let me!! :D :D

This quilt is beautiful, very simple which makes it very dramatic. Did you machine quilt it?

thecompletequilter 08-26-2008 09:58 AM

Yes,
I am a longarm quilter and did it on my A-1 machine.
Thanks for all the kind words.
