Andrea, Hello from Andrea from Arizona. We share a love for Wholecloth quilting by hand. Your pattern is outstnading and your quilting is beyond gorgeous :thumbup: Is your pattern one you designed or one you purchased? I love your pattern so much, I find it difficult to find wonderfully creative patterns iin the USA. A lot of the one I see here that are machine embroidered and that's a big turn off to me...Thank you for saring your beautiful hand work with us...Andie

How wonderful to hear that we share our love for Wholecloth quilting!
I didn't purchase the patterns for this quilt. I agree with you, it is difficult or almost impossible to find beautiful patterns and that is the reason why I have started to design patterns by myself, to "redraw" them from pictures and to make my own stencils and templates. I feel very inspired by antique wholecloths and I love their patterns a lot. It Is worth to keep them alive and to use them today in our work.
