    Default Love Letters quilted

    Just finished quilting this quilt called Love Letters from the book When The Cold Wind Blows by Barb Adams and Alma Allen of Blackbird Designs. It was a fun quilt all the way. When I sat down to quilt it on my DSM I had no idea how to quilt it so I just made something up as I went. I liked the experience. Thanks for looking.[ATTACH=CONFIG]531635[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]531636[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]531637[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]531637[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]531638[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]531639[/ATTACH]

    Absolutely stunning. I love applique and you did a beautiful job on the quilting. Just curious, but, how much fusible web (and what kind did you use?) did you use? Thanks.

    Wow, that is beautiful. You mean you didn't draw out your quilting design? I can't even quilt that good , even if I did have a design drawn on my quilt.

    I used the wash away applique sheets fused onto the applique and used glue sticks for turning the edges under.

    Thank you, the only thing I drew a pattern on was the big red flower. Everything else was just free motion as I went along.
