    Default Quilted Twisted Roses

    This quilt was so fun to make! I found it relaxing to create each rose individually, and then place on my design wall and watch the garden grow! About halfway through, I decided to turn the blocks on point. Then, I broke out the twin needle for the border quilting using variegated threads. I really like the effect on the 1" strip.

    The roses are cool; are they paper pieced?

    Your quilt is just beautiful. You did a great job with those roses. And, I love the double needle quilting. It makes the quilt just that much more special.

    Thanks all! It is not paper pieced. Rose Twirls Video Notes this is the link to a tutorial that I posted to accompany the youtube video. I found that I can follow video better if I create shorthand-ish notes, so I shared them. It has the link to the video. I selected a printed piece of fabric, then 3 solids to coordinate. That was actually playing with my fabrics!

    Great combination of colors. Never would have thought to double stitch, but it works!
