A closer view of the quilting. I need to practice straight lines. They did look straighter before I washed it. You've heard the story of the washing machine eating the socks... well I think the washing machine made the quilting lines crooked. Right?
Feathers aren't perfect but I do believe they are getting better. They are all freehand, and that in itself is a biggie for me. Just need more practice. I didn't quilt the purple crosses I left them blank.
A shot of the back the texture shows up nice.
Lining up to Linky Tuesday at Freemotion by the River.
Looks beautiful to me! Enjoy snuggling under it!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Your quilting is amazing. Holy cow!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great quilt. I really like the pattern and the color. And there's nothing wrong with your quilting!
ReplyDeleteI love your version of this quilt, the quilting adds such texture, beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI think the quilted lines are supposed to be crooked. Better that way. Lovely quilt and colors.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is beautiful, with a lovely traditional classic look. I love the feathers radiating from the centre of the block. Don't fret about veering off from where you thought you should go when quilting. Straight straight lines look too machine made. Your quilt has soul.
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up with Free Motion Mavericks.
