quilting

nqa quilt front full viewSo I set out to make a convergence quilt and it didn’t quite happen.  Forgot to follow a couple of the rules.  I do like the piece.  I’m going to submit it to the Little Quilt Auction through NQA in June.  I did a lot of quilting on this piece…swirling feathers are a feature, used 4 thread colors on the front and orange on the back.

This is a smaller swirling feather.  I really like doing these.

maybe outline quilting

the center design is in my graph paper book in another location.

I’m loving this quilt.

Once I get the finials ironed down I’ll post a photo of the complete quilt.  Right now it’s sitting on my ironing board.

 

Happy Quilting!
