I pretty much could have been blindfolded when I quilted the borders because I couldn't see the thread at all on that fabric while I was quilting. No joke.
I tried a new all over design in the center. Kind of a feathery swirl. Everything is freehand. I did mark for spacing on the sashing.
And finally the whole quilt. Well sort of...my photo skills are pathetic. :-)
Scott loved how the borders came out. He was very impressed and loves this quilt now too!
I am loving every second of this quilting journey. Even the little "learning bumps" every now and then.
Hope everyone has a great day!
That is just awesome. I am really impressed by the fact that the middle was done without any marking or a panto or anything. I'd love to be able to do that sort of thing.
