    Default Take 5 Gets the Point quilt -- quilted for customer by Dee

    This is the Take 5 Gets the Point quilt I quilted for my friend, Jeanne. It's a fun one to quilt -- always turns out so pretty!!

    The straight lines you see are the Vanish thread from Superior -- used to stabilize the quilt.

    I used Warm and Natural batting and King Tut thread -- it's 67" x 84 1/2" wide and the designs are all freestyle.

    beautiful quilt and quilting. I love that the colors make it suitable for Christmas, but it's not a "Christmas" quilt per se.

    What a beautiful quilt, and I love your quilting. And don't you just love that Vanish thread? It makes everythng so simple. No more hand basting. Can't use the spray glue - cuz I have COPD. Great work!

    That is a beautiful quilt. Love the quilting also. My flowers and circle are nowhere straight like yours. I'll just have to keep practicing.

    Dee, you have done it again!! It is beautiful, I made this for a friend who is nuts about Shabby Chic, this should suit her just fine. I think that the quilting is beautiful. Wonderful job. Jeanne
