I did not make this quilt but I may need to make one of these myself to do quilting like this for me. I will let the pics speak for themselves. I posted a Sneak Peek here: Sneak peek of quilting with high contrast thread

Techy stuff
Batting: Hobbs 80/20 black
Thread: Glide in colors Cleopatra, Candy Apple and Black with matching Magnaglide bobbins and Invisifil in a sage green color (in the panel) magnaglide Tuscan in the bobbin for that
Rulers used: a straight (lots!) My favorite straight edge is flat and measures about 7 x 2, Quilted pineapple arc rulers in BFF size, 15, and 8, and a 2" circle ruler (used to make the clamshells in the panel)
Marking tools: Chalk pencil and Bohn ceramic white lead pencil, Blue water soluble marker (Mark be Gone brand). I also used a chalk transfer paper and stylus to mark out the peonys in the fan.
Stencil: Magnolia 10" size https://www.quiltingstencils.com/Mag...10_p_1697.html
Hours: Over 70 in the quilting, another 10 in design work and premarking. I also marked as I went so that is included in the 70.

Edited to add Quilted on my Innova 26" longarm with lightening stitch regulator.

Before Quilting With the bones marked in chalk and the stencil applied:

My mouth is still open (jaw dropping)! The quilting really makes the quilt. Just beautiful stitching!

It's gorgeous! Those heavily quilted triangles around the center medallion are as heavy a design element as the piecing, totally change the look of the piece and I love them. How ho-hum it all was before the quilting. I like how the triangles are so much more heavily quilted than the other design elements. There's balance there, just as with larger and lesser design elements in piecing and applique.
