What exquisite quilting! Love the amazing feathers of all sorts and stippling. It's unbelievable how you compose all this in your mind and quilt it with a machine as easily as one might draw. (uh-I can't even draw) The quilt top is excellent, and the quilting adds so much texture, dimension, and pizzazz.

These blocks/fabric/directions were from a Shop Hop a few years ago, so there was not a complete quilt pattern; each block was purchased from a different shop participating ibn the Shop Hop using the same fabric and each block came with directions from that shop for cutting each specific block, there was a picture of how the quilt was suppose to look upon completion. It was definitely a challenge...but with Charisma's quilting, it is so worth all the effort...

I haven't read through all the posts so I am certain I can't use any adjectives for it that haven't already been used. This quilt is inspirational to me. The piecing is just beautiful and live all the different blocks and fabric choices. Your quilting is the perfect compliment and you enhanced the piecing just perfectly.
I have a CW tribute in the que right now and your application of this sampler has given me lots of good ideas on how I want to proceed. Thanks!
