This is Joy's Star Sampler quilt. This was so busy and so pretty that I decided to use Magna-Glide Lime Green thread on top and blue in the bobbin ...
No, you say!!! But look at the close-up of the back of this quilt. Great tension on my APQS Millennium machine. I love this machine!! With tension like this, what's not to like!
Ok, enough about tension...
I used a Star and ribbon pantograph to go with the stars and ribbons in that black sashing/border. Turned out great!
Close-up of one of the blocks. See the lime green thread? Pretty pretty pretty...
This is a close-up of the backing. Blue thread only! Wheee!!
This is a table runner or bed runner that I had a lot of fun quilting for my NY friend Jeanita. She does a great job piecing and this was a dream to quilt.
And this is Mary's 9-patch sampler quilt. I used a flowy flowery panto on this and I think it turned out great. Notice how those 9-patches creep out onto that first border. Great job, Mary!!
Cathy made this for her son and his bride-to-be ... they are modern kiddos so she made this very modern quilt with the beautiful grey linen fabric. What a dream to quilt! Being modern, I went with a modern box-in-a-box type pattern. See close-up below.
It turned out lovely!! Congratulations to all!
