The feathered border quilting is done with light lavender thread



Then I went in with orange thread and hyper quilted inside the feathers



I learned to hyper-quilt from Patsy Thompson DVD's



Auditioning variegated pink fabric for the binding???

The Bubbles & Blooms quilt is the last large quilt I need to complete for the September exhibit. Tomorrow I will finish up the binding...then move on to a few journal quilts that need some work. I am looking forward to working small for awhile.

  1. I'm really enjoying seeing this quilt come together and get finished. I think I'll try large flowers like that sometime

  2. Your machine quilting skills are beautiful. It looks like you've mastered free-form, free-motion. No small task as your eyes and brain have to move a bit faster than your hands and feet. Great job! Very impressive. I sure understand why you'll appreciate working on something smaller for a change of pace.

    Pink binding is the way to go. Thanks for sharing your work, and flowers, with us.

  4. Hi Stitch-n-quilt,
    I do hope you will try large flowers......just draw out one flower petal as a pattern and you are ready to go.

    Hi Linda,
    Thank you for your kind words.
    The quilt measures 63 x 75 inches

    Hi Vicki,
    Glad you are enjoying the photos!
    I enjoy sharing them with you.
