    Default Red / Gold quilt with a Southwestern flair

    This pattern is from the Nov/Dec 2012 McCalls Quilting (or Maybe Quick Quilting) titled Champagne Wishes
    You can see their version on their website. I left off the outer border on this version.

    I did this in Jenny Beyer fabrics - Outback and Northern Lights -- which really gave it a Southwestern feel to me.

    The quilting design (was LAQ'ed) was a border pattern and every other row was flipped -it gives it a really cool 'embossed' look... love the way this whole quilt turned out. Quilting design pattern is Southwest Border / Panto by Celine Spader.

    These pics were taken at the LAQ shop - I am going to bind it in red.

    Thanks for looking!

    Breathtaking! Is your LAQ computer guided? I am thinking it had to be to line up the flipped panto so perfectly. Looks great.

    Yes ma'am - it's a Gammil Statler Stitcher with Creative Studios... and its a shop. I can only hope one day when I grow up that I can have one.
