My new two color quilt is finally on my mother-in-law’s bed.
I wanted it to be warm and lightweight so I chose to use a polyester batting.
The polyester batting doesn’t highlight the quilting the same way as a cotton batting – we can’t have all the advantages in a piece of batting!
Do you remember how it started? There are 121 blocks and 11 different patterns.
I pieced the blocks and assembled the top quickly and without difficulties. You couldn’t believe how easy it is to keep everything in order.
I quilted it block by block. I used Aurifil 50wt and the fabulous Jeans Needle.
The feathers meet on the diagonal line for all the blocks, everything runs in the same direction- a beautiful effect – see those darker lines across the quilt.
A multicolor quilt would look beautiful too!
Happy quilting!

Woot woot, yay! I pinned your quilt top version of this quilt on a board called Fresh Modern Quilting and a lot of people loved it. So glad you have a pattern out for it 😀 It came out really lovely!

Geta, you always do such beautiful work that I almost feel intimidated. I am amazed at how you can take a "simple" idea and turn it into a real masterpiece. Someday . . . maybe.
