another baby quilt this one for a grandma at work. some of you may know that i love scrappy stash busters. this one is quilted with the turkey tracks that i use a lot cause it is a fast way to do hand work.
hope she likes it. thanks for looking. |
That is sooooo pretty. You did such a good job on it!

thanks eddie, it was a lot of fun. i work til 10 at night and i can do hand work for about the last 2 to 3 hours. so i always have a project to work on. you gotta love a job like that. lol

Now, I need to reconfirm what "TURKEY TRACKS" are because I'm not familar with that term.. <smile> THANKS! Bill |

What a beautiful baby quilt-- destined to be well-loved.
I love scrappy quilts. My grandmother made one for me; a simple utility scrap quilt with pink sashing. I spent many "naptimes" studying the prints and colors. I'm sure my mom was delighted that it kept me entertained for a few extra minutes! It was hand quilted like yours. There's nothing like soft hand quilting to snuggle under. |
if you search for TECHNIQUE CALLED TURKEY TRACKS you will find a good drawing of the method of execution of this wonderful tacking device. sometimes i have seen it called crow foot tacking.
i use crotchet thread, the kind that comes in a big round ball. it is what grandma used to make doilies. i find that embroidery floss is too much hassle, although i have used it. also pearl cotton but it is more expensive and a little heavier than i prefer. but there are no quilt police. i would suggest experimentation to see what you like. have fun, it is very satisfying. |
Very nice quilt nanabirdmo! Great use of scraps! The colors are so soft too.
|
Beautiful scrap quilt and I love your turkey tracks quilting. Lucky baby!!
|
Beautiful!!
Love the turkey tracks! :D |
Hi there..
I've tried searching for TURKEY TRACKS but can't find anything - if anyone has a link they could share I'd really appreciated..now I'm really intrigued... Thanks! Bill |
lockeb, if you just go to the top of this page you will find a search option just under the heading QUILTING BOARD-... the second option is search and there is a little magnifying glass beside. this searches from this site only. if you type in TECHNIQUE CALLED TURKEY TRACKS the very first option should be the one you want.
good luck. |
Beautiful quilt!!
|
Very pretty and your quilting is very good! I love the scrappies!
|
Beautiful! I really like your photos of it as well, nice job!
