A scrappy batik
 
3 Attachment(s)
This quilt has a pantograph called "botanical gardens" with a cross-hatching border, and some SITD where appropriate.

We usually set-back an inch on out border work for the binding, but we've found that with a cross-hatch border the finished quilt looks better with the hatching going to the binding so this border was quilted right to the edge.

This quilt has Hobbs 80/20 and she wishes to bind it herself

Really beautiful work!!!

Beautiful, and, being a longarm quilter myself I know how difficult it can sometimes be to get the corners to come out as nicely as you have done with the crosshatching.

Beautiful quilting. I don't do pantographs, but there are some beautiful ones out there and this is definitely one.

love it, makes me want to go and pull a jelly roll and do a mile a minute..........I think the border is what "cools" it down well.

Beautiful work and such a colorful quilt. I don't have a long-arm machine, but when I'm making quilts, I put the binding on before quilting the border - it seems to make it look more finished to me,but I know that's personal preference.

Love this!

Yes the lay out can be a real adventure on a crosshatch border.
