    Momma Dorian sent me this quilt for LAQ.

    She gave me freedom to do as I wished....

    The fabrics are a mix of floral, asians, sparkling swirlies...and neuturals. I quilted a kind of all over design of flowers...and leave with swirlies..turning 20's are really a good quilt for all over quilting. It is so big I can't get a full shot...

    SHe put two borders on them and I put feather in both borders..I usually don't do that...I usually leave one fairly plain for the eye to rest...but this time I though it was fitting and it turned out great!

    I did this all freehand on my INNOVA. No computer or pantograph quilting.

    I do take new clients...just PM for those of you who have been wondering..thanks for looking!

    I am new to quilting. I have a Husqvarna Viking Embroidery and Quilting Machine. Still not familiar with some of the functions of the machine. How do you get the design stitches? I would like to learn.

    SHe put two borders on them and I put feather in both borders..I usually don't do that...I usually leave one fairly plain for the eye to rest...but this time I though it was fitting and it turned out great!

    I did this all freehand on my INNOVA. No computer or pantograph quilting.

    I do take new clients...just PM for those of you who have been wondering..thanks for looking!
