Take 5 Gets the Point quilt -- quilted for customer by Dee
 

This is the Take 5 Gets the Point quilt I quilted for my friend, Jeanne. It's a fun one to quilt -- always turns out so pretty!!

The straight lines you see are the Vanish thread from Superior -- used to stabilize the quilt.

I used Warm and Natural batting and King Tut thread -- it's 67" x 84 1/2" wide and the designs are all freestyle.

beautiful quilt and quilting. I love that the colors make it suitable for Christmas, but it's not a "Christmas" quilt per se.

What a beautiful quilt, and I love your quilting. And don't you just love that Vanish thread? It makes everythng so simple. No more hand basting. Can't use the spray glue - cuz I have COPD. Great work!

That is a beautiful quilt. Love the quilting also. My flowers and circle are nowhere straight like yours. I'll just have to keep practicing.

beautiful love the colors

Dee, you have done it again!! It is beautiful, I made this for a friend who is nuts about Shabby Chic, this should suit her just fine. I think that the quilting is beautiful. Wonderful job. Jeanne

Very pretty. Everyone should be happy with this.

Ohhhh, very nice! Love the fabrics!

very nice and quilting is pretty not over done!

Beautiful Dee and Jeanne. I just love it. Please bring it to our meeting next week.

I love the border fabric!

Love your quilt aqnd the red white and green are beautiful any time of year.

Beautiful......love the Christmas fabric!

Thank you everyone -- but I want to clarify -- it's NOT red and white!!! It's a rose pink and white. Think Shabby Chic!!!

Beautiful quilt and quilting.

Your quilt is very pretty.

Very nice. What is Vanish thread? Is it a water soluble thread used for basting? It would certainly make life simpler if it was.

What is the Vanish thread from Superior???

Beautiful!!!!!!

Very pretty - quilt - colors - quilting. Very nice.

Beautifully done, both the piecing and the quilting. Love the design you've used.

Your quilting is lovely.

The quilt is just gorgeous. Your quilting enhanced it so.

I'm sorry --- I always forget to include something with the narratives! Vanish thread IS a water soluble thread. You use it on the top and loosen the tension. It comes out really nice with spritzes of water....except where the quilting goes over it. You need to soak the quilt in the washer to really get it out good though....otherwise it's like stiff fishing line poking you. I only do it on customer quilts that I KNOW are going to be washed.

thank you everyone!!!

lovely quilt!!! (found reply under the post rather than scrolling for it this time)

Lovely quilt and lovely quilting (as always).

I love the colors in this one. Quilting is beautiful.

Simply Beautiful,quilt and quilting.

This is beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

Absolutly beautiful, quilt,quilting and the colors. Wonderful job.

Shabby chic is a look I like and the quilt is beautiful!

Beautiful Dee - I love your flower design you quilted. Great job.

Very beautiful quilt. I think the class I took a few years ago was a Take Five pattern, but not on point. I never did finish that quilt. That's one of the UFO's I should get out and finish. You have definitely inspired me to finish it even though it's nowhere as lovely as this one.

It is beautiful and the quilting is lovely

I have made several take five quilts never one like yours love it :)

I really love the fabric combinations. Great job on the quilting. Thanks for sharing.

Love it!!!!
