Classic Embroideries

Another one of Janet Sansom’s gorgeous quilts.  I like this one even more than her Embroideries on Black quilt that I did for her recently.  But I think that is more to do with colour preferences than anything else.  Each embroidery is different, and so detailed.  I remembered to take more close ups this time.

I ditch stitched all the seams to stabilise the quilt and keep the sashing lines straight.  Janet likes meandering around her embroideries to keep it simple.  This was the first time I did curved cross hatching on a customer quilt.  As the border was wide enough I did a feather cable.
