    King size Bedspread made for daughters bedroom. The sides do go to the floor. She accented it with brown and black pillow cases. I also made 2 pillows with roosters on them and fringe and a jaboe style valance for the window with 3 of the roosters on it.
    Quilted on my Janome 11000.

    Love your fabric choice! Was that a panel you cut apart to get the reverse image roosters?

    Just panels that I cut apart and made a shadow box around them and then sewed them together with a brown strip. On the side and end drops I quilted seperately and then attached to center section. By the time I was through with this project they had become Turkey's. Never again.

    The crosshatching quilting is beautiful! Did you mark it out? Do you use a DSM or a longarm? I'm thinking about crosshatching my next one but I'm intimidated! What is your secret?
