This was heaven to quilt. The instructions from Denise when she brought it to me to be quilted were - lots of feathers, and it could be quilted densely. As I had quilted for Denise before, I felt comfortable having artistic freedom with her quilt. The quilt was beautifully pieced and appliqued. Denise made it for her son and daughter-in-law for their wedding present.
As you can see, it is quilted densely, and there are feathers. Almost all the piecing was ditch stitched to stabilise the quilt. I was originally going to put some sort of curls in the wider dark pink border - but it just didn’t feel right. The quilt was almost finished when I decided to do the pinstripes. It took longer, but I think it works better; giving contrast to the feathers.
Oh gosh, what beautiful work you do. I think the quilting really makes this quilt come to life.
