Wedding Rings

Last week I finished this client quilt. The pattern she used is Wedding Rings by Seams and Dreams. I quilted with Lava Sandy Beach on top and So Fine Pearl on the bottom. The quilting pattern is Oma's Garden by Sophie Collier.

Here is the back of the quilt...

This quilting pattern is very dense, you can really see the texture here.....

And the whole quilt....

This quilt is for my client's niece, a wedding present. Quilts are a great gift. wink, wink
Am taking another quilt off my frame today, take pictures tomorrow and start the next quilt.
Happy quilting,

Tile Tango Quilt

This a a client's quilt, she pieced this quilt for her daughter to raise money for a triathlon she is training for.

When a quilt top is angular, I like to use a curvy quilting design to soften the top. There were floral fabrics, so I chose the pattern Rhapsody by Jodi Beamish. I have used this pattern twice now, so I am getting faster with it.

For the top I used a variegated cream thread, the variegated thread adds a nice depth to the quilting. The back has a matching cream.

Here is the whole top....

One block....
Background square....


Border fabric....




Next week I am beginning a large modern wedding ring quilt. Will take me a couple of weeks, so take care and I will update in a couple of weeks!
Happy Quilting!
