I agreed to longarm a top for the guild. The quilt is pretty and has a lot of movement. So, I decided not to interrupt the movement with too much quilting and just do widely (3 1/2”) spaced vertical and horizontal lines. This quilt contains so many different scraps. Suprisingly, I didn’t find any fabric that we have had in our inventory. How many different quilting fabrics must there be!
- 65" x 94" Twin bed size
- Quilting: Quilted in straight vertical and horizontal lines. After the vertical lines were completed, the quilt was remounted to do the horizontal lines. Used light gray 100% polyester thread (Omni from Superior Threads-named "Silver"). 5 bobbins. Quilting by Patty.
