Sneak peak at Red and White quilt
 
2 Attachment(s)
I quilted this on my hand guided Gammill Classic without a computer or stitch regulator.

To decide on what to quilt on this beauty, I first drew the block out on plain paper, then laid tracing paper on top so I could see the block beneath. I then played with designs until I finally drew something that I felt I would be able to stitch on the quilt. LOTS of ruler work and a LOT of time but I am really pleased with the results.

Love this quilt and that almost every quilting motif, when you look, can be interpreted as a butterfly. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!

I forgot to add, that the idea for drawing the block out in real size and laying tracing paper over it to pencil in quilting designs before laying a stitch to the quilt came from Lisa Calle's DVD "Divide and Design". She uses this method with quilts with a lot of open background that needs to be filled in. She amazes me with what she can do!
