It's that texture that I just love!!!!

Beth's quilt

So, Beth's quilt again! I absolutely love it! The quilt pattern is "Snowball" from a Kaffe Fassett book. This quilt is some more simple custom quilting, by "simple" I mean not as many things going on. It's simply, texturally great! I didn't want to take away from the design or the fabrics in this quilt. So, the following pictures will show you what I came up with.

Then, most of them say "I don't quilt." Well, since I have more...

Texture

Okay - guilty as charged. I love the texture that quilting creates on quilts. I spend most of my time running my fingers over the quilting (not joking) and end up posting pictures of it when I should be quilting because the kids are asleep!

T-Shirt quilt..........




This quilt was for Danielle's son - he's off to college and she wanted a custom quilting job for this special quilt. I learned a few things about this quilt - I had to change out my needle and use a size 16 instead of the size 18 that I always use, and I couldn't quilt every block with as much detail as I wanted because some of the t-shirt graphics were more "gummy" if that's the right word....
