I sent this quilt to Darby for LAQ.
I know....some of you think why?
Well here is the original post:
http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-43404-1.htm
I finished in April of 2010....and here we are...I just don't get around to quilting my own quilts. I have always loved this little quilt and I don't think I can part with it...it's so soft and pretty.
Here is another little tidbit of info...some of my own quilts I can't quilt plan?? I can plan all the ones that come across my frame from every one else..but when I see my own....Well in some cases I freeze?? I have no idea why?? Most of the time if it's my own...I don't care as much and it gets a fast treatment because I am in a hurry??
That's why I am sending some of my more special quilts out...to Darby and Feline.
I just LOVE how Darby quilted this quilt and I can honestly say if I didn't send it to her it would not be a BEAUTIFUL quilt! I love how she quilts..and I love that continuous curve with a swirl..I will have to add that to my catalog!
I posted the pattern info in the other thread..it's from an old magazine and the main fabric was Pink.....hence the title.
Darby used HObbs 80/20 Batting which will later give it the vintage look...so pretty on this type of quilt.

Thanks for looking!

Beautiful quilt. I am so addicted to coming here and looking to see what everyone is doing. Had to laugh Charisma, you sending your quilt top out.....but I thought right away, how fun to have one done by another QB'er. Thanks for sharing it.

Darby did a great job on this! I love that swirl in the CC too! I might have to just borrow that idea. :wink:
I am shocked at the amount of loft on this using W&N. If you hadn't said, I would swear it was polydown. It looks great and will look even better when it gets washed and gets that old fasioned crinkly look.
