    The owner brought this to me and wanted me to machine quilt this quilt that was hand-pieced by her Mother in Law. They found it in the attic after she had passed away and she wanted to give it to her son for his wedding. Due to cost, she wanted an allover panto. I talked her into continuous curves on the stars and greek key on the squares. Turned out pretty good, I think, and is better suited to the quilt than an allover modern panto would have been.

    Kind of hard to see the squares, but they were fussy cut striped fabric and pieced to have the stripes meet.
