Here's yet another of the quilts from the family that found a stash made by their great grandmother (11 down, 9 to go.)
The back - turned out pretty.
Two quilts by another customer. She asked me to envelope this one for her before quilting. The next quilt pictured she already had enveloped. Quilts that are finished off this way previous to quilting are a tad tricky since you have to pin and clamp onto the longarm right on the quilt, no excess bottom fabric to use- it's difficult if not a bit impossible to stitch right to the edge. The quilter has to be a little creative and very careful.
This one had no batting in it, and the top was so busy and the bottom so furry that you can't even see the quilting :)

I love the top one. The others are pretty, but the top is so old fashioned. This may sound corny, but it reminds me of grandma hugs. I just want to cuddle up in it.
ReplyDeleteI love the stitching on that first one! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a stash of quilt tops like that - another great quilt, lovely quilting!
