    Default Freehand Wholecloth Wallhanging...quilted by Kevin

    This is not yet finished (have to trim and put on the binding), but this is Kevin's latest freehand whole cloth quilt. He's donating it to the MQS show in Wichita this May for their charity auction on May 16. Thanks for looking

    Beautiful. I just can't wrap my mind around the artistic talent things like that take.

    Could you please tell me on what sort of machine Kevin did this wonderfull quilting. I am getting mad with my Janome 7700! The Guterman cotton thread breaks every minute, and on my Elna 1 there is no problem ! But to quilt the center of the bed cover I cannot reach with the Grasshopper, I had to go back to Janome. Excuse my bad english, I am french!

    We use Nolting longarm machines. I use a Fun Quilter and he has a 24" Pro model.
