Here are some pics of a whirlygig quilt that I just finished quilting and binding for a customer. I don't know who the maker of the top was, other than that it was someone in her family. She wanted it quilted for her nephew who is getting married this Saturday. :) It measures 62" x 84". I choose to do a simple medium sized meandering pattern on it since I thought a repeating pantograph pattern would detract from the splendid piecing that the maker did. I like how it turned out, and love giving new life to old tops like this. :D
