The full quilt. I didn't take pictures of the back. The fabric was so busy that not much would have been seen.

Light Custom on a BQ Quilt
This is Peg's quilt. I used some leafy feathers and each big block got its own individual flower. I finished this awhile ago and just realized I hadn't posted pictures. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you are getting time to make some quilts.

Wool, Homespun Fabrics, and Feathers Make this a Jewel!
Jackie has been waiting patiently for this jem, and I hope it will be worth the wait. I posted earlier about all the tools I used for this quilt, and will post more later this week. I quilted lots of feathers as they are one of my favorite things to do, particularly on a traditional quilt like this.
I used Glide primarily, with So Fine for the stitch in the ditch. Thanks for looking! Thanks, Jackie, for allowing me to finish your quilt. It was a pleasure.

Loving This Border!
This pretty quilt belongs to a customer, Jackie. I designed this border pattern just by trial and error and I used Linda Hrcka's #20 ruler, along with Renae Haddadin's arc ruler.
The process evolves from chalk on the fabric, to a whiteboard, then sketch pads and also my plexiglass which I lay over the fabric.
I'll be posting more the further along I get. Stay tuned. I'll show pictures of my drawings and tools if interested.
