When I get a spare moment, I have been reading the latest Machine Quilting Unlimited. I really enjoy this magazine and look forward to my copy turning up in the mail.
In the May edition it has an article called “A Quilter’s Challenge”.
They had six well-known quilters quilt the same simple snowball quilt top - each quilter completed the quilt in their own style.
I really enjoyed seeing how the same quilt could look so different due to the different quilting. Whilst I liked some more than others overall, each quilt had aspects that I particularly liked.

My favourite was the one done by Ronda Kae Beyer. I especially liked what she did in the border, and the curved crosshatching really gives the quilt movement.
Stephanie Patterson’s version with freehand feathers on all the white also really appealed to me.
I was wondering if anyone else gets this magazine, and if so, what are your thoughts on the quilts in this article?
