Quilting, Quilting

Quilting,




Quilting,



Unquilting,




Quilted!




I have been focused on the quilting of my Civil War Bride Quilt. Mostly quilting in the ditch around the appliques, a few details in some of the larger appliques, bird wings, swirls in the sheep, etc. I am using a wool batt for the first time, it is wonderful!


I also finished the long arm quilting on the red and white quilt, and now that I have posted the picture of it I noticed that a couple of the blocks are turned, I still think it is pretty.


Happy Stitching,

Cheri

    Those turned blocks just add charm to your beautiful red and white quilt. I am in awe of you Civil War Bride Quilt. It is quite an accomplishment to machine quilt applique.

    So much work to quilt the CWB quilt. Hate the unquilting part LOL.

    I really had to look to see the turned blocks.
