  1. the quilting truly spotlights the piecework - absolutely stunning ! I know you work on a Juki but I did not realize that you had a long-arm.

    Even though I quilt only on a sewing machine, I will check out the book recommendation - those are ASWAYS most welcome

    Gorgeous quilt

  3. beautiful quilt - must be difficult to quilt a big quilt like that by regular machine - I have only done a table topper and I will stick with my hand quilting!

  8. Wait - are you the same girl who, not so long ago, was unsure about quilting feathers? The simple piecing is the perfect balance to your spectacular quilting.
