Free motion spirals in stars. Webs and flowers in spiderwebs |
On the other hand, the spirals in the stars are lovely. These smaller units are easier to handle on a domestic machine. {I don't know why I forgot how difficult it is to create smooth arcs longer than the space under the machine.}
Then I'll head to the border. Several ideas are floating around my brain and surely one will work well. This needs to be finished soon. It's supposed to hang in our guild show April 1 and 2. If you're in the Bay Area, please come. Lots of talent in this guild.
Enjoy the day, Ann

Ann, it's looking great! It will be a lovely addition to the quilt show! XO
I love the line texture quilting gives. Great texture here
This is one of my favorites of your quilts - the colors, the designs, the thought process, and your attention to detail. Just lovely!!!
Love this quilt! Wish I could come to the show
Ann, your quilting is stellar! Mine's looking pretty bad. It was a mistake to quilt in black. Oh well, it's for a toddler!
Thanks, Karen. I'm working hard to finish it in time.
I'm curious how differently these textures will read once it's washed, LeeAnna. The batting will shrink a bit, something I prefer because of the crinkly results.
How very kind of you, Julie. Thank you.
Thanks, Em. I wish everyone could come... and that I could visit all the shows across the country, too.
Stellar isn't exactly it, Joni. I want to see yours again. I remember it as lively and fun.
It's looking wonderful, lot of quilty texture!
Thanks, Linda. I've gone back and forth on these designs. I think I'll like it when it's done though.
Beautiful work, Ann. If I could swing it I would love to visit and see the show. I'm sure it will be fun.
this quilt is so pleasing to look at ans so many different fabrics. Do share photos of the quilt show please
Nothing like a deadline to focus the mind! I love the spiral quilting and am glad you've figured out how to handle the rest.
The quilting is looking great! I would leave the border the way it is.
I'm glad you like it, Margaret. If there's a link, I'll share it but I don't post photos of other people's quilts without permission. I prefer to link them since the makers can share their voices, too.
Isn't it funny how some parts are so easy and others so difficult? I decided to move forward. We'll see if I ever get the webs fixed.
Thanks, Patty. It's always good to know other people like my quilt, too. At this point, they drive me nuts.
Thanks, Janie. It would be a treat to meet up.
