T sent me this quilt ..she is using at her and her DH's wedding Vow renewal in a couple weeks...

AWE!! How sweet is that?

So she wanted it quilted with metallic threads....I had a hard time getting just the right metallic...LOL..I used Superiors silver in the colored fabrics...as it is a bit more hearty and didn't give me any troubles..and then I used a thinner green metallic in the white areas..that did give me some trouble...superior metallic threads only..is my new motto!

Anyway..it is a beautiful quilt..I chose to feather the borders...loops in the white sashing..and block work in the HST's.

I quilted this freehand on my INNOVA...used Hobbs POlydown batting . No computer or pantograph work...all freehand...

Thanks for looking!

back...LOVE this fabric!

Beautiful quilt, beautiful quilting.

That is absolutely gorgeous !!!!! I wish you lived close to me. I love your quilting. Shipping to and from Wa. would cost more than buying a finished quilt. LOL

There are not many LAQ's in my area that I know of (1 in fact)
Keep up the beautiful work.

Flat rate boxes cost the same no matter where you are in U.S. ! I just sent her my queen sz top for $10.95. Well worth that small cost to know you'll get a masterpiece of quilting in return! IMHO

Oh charisma its amazing......leaves me breathless. It's going to be stunning at our wedding. Thank you for helping make our special day spectacular.....I can't wait to get it back and get the binding on.

Thanks Vanuata Jill, I wasn't worried about shipping the top but I figured the long distance would be quiet expensive shipping the finished product back.
