the last border and corner squares will be quilted using these patterns. quilting this amish center diamond has been real fun, sort of a quilting fantasy. i've used several long admired patterns on what is essentially a blank slate of fabric. like all my quilts, it isn't perfect and i don't really care that it isn't. i am just enjoying the process immensely. amish quilts and their densely quilted patterns first drew me into quilting, not the patchwork, and this quilt is a culmination of sorts of that first tantalizing attraction.
The patterns are so pretty, Grace. I admire you for having the patience to enjoy the hand quilting. It is going to be magnificent!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a nice job of quilting! Love the quilting patterns.
ReplyDeleteOh, Grace, those patterns will be beautiful. I can't help thinking how much work is involved. You certainly did choose patterns to highlight the quilting. When I hand quilt I usually choose much simpler templates or I know I would never finish. : )
