Very creative! Did you use tulle on this quilt. I have done something similar but my quilting need much more practice. I just love it.

Yes, tulle is the over lay to hold the background in place before stitching it down.
Thanks MK

Ahhhhhh. Marvelous! Oh if I could only create like that. I, much to my sadness, am a technician.

This week I got into one of the largest bookstores (new and used) in the southern US. I picked up a book, PIECED QUILTS OF ONTARIO written by Dorothy K. Burnham, Textile Department, Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto, copyright 1975.

Some of the exhibits shown and discussed in the little book/big brochure were sewn from 1840 forward to just about 1900. I am mentioning them to you because of the huge distance "quilting" has come. I is also fascinating to discover there are still aficionados of every form of quilting still practicing today. You are practicing my favorite part: modern.

Thanks,

Pat
