This quilt is beautiful!

I feel that way about all quilts .....there is something about each of them that I love...In this, I love the soft subtle movement.

When looking at this quilt from a LAQ perspective I see the three pin wheels.....The two pieced ones in the pastel colors and the one that is formed by the dark background color. In order to make those seen by everyone I put a design specific to each pinwheel.

At first I was thinking..."Oh No, IS this to busy?" But with re-assurance and looking at the finished quilt it all comes together and it looks beautiful.

I quilted this freehand on my INNOVA. I used hobbs polydown batting.

Thanks for looking.

The feathers make them spin. Had to be. They look great.
