This striking quilt was made by Lou.
I had a lot of fun quilting it, and enjoyed designing
something special for the border. I knew
Lou liked feathers, so I wanted to design something contemporary that
incorporated feathers and echoed the sharp points in the piecing.
The centre I mainly ditch stitched or quarter inched
the piecing as I didn’t want to take away from Lou’s beautiful, and very precise work.
The quilting is beautiful. How long did it take you to quilt?
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is stunning......love the combination of black, white and greys....and that green ....just beautiful.......
ReplyDeleteSooo pretty. I really love the effect of the triangles in the outer area against the bold circles of the quilt - it has such an Australian feeling to me. Which is perfect!
