Another sample to showcase new fabric in at The Country Yard called 'Fieldnotes' by Blackbird Designs Moda. Designed by Kerryn, owner of The Country Yard. 'Warm & Bright' polyester batting.
Some of my quilting inspiration came from Angela Walter's book 'Free Motion Quilting'.
Diane Gaudynski. gave me the inspiration for this design called 'Celtic Bubbles'. I had a go at drawing the design when I saw it on Diane's blog, but I hadn't found the right quilt to try out this design, I really like it, how about you? ( what's with the finger in the photo? )
.........some double loops on the busy flower fabric..................
Apart from the curved ruler & the stencil for this Celtic knot, everything was free formed, no marking......just the way I like it.
Simple quilting, all over double loops for the centre using a soft variegated Gunold thread. Some cross hatching & straight lines & of course ditch stitching.
Beautiful work....I really enjoyed seeing the different quilting. I hand quilt and just bought a longarm to learn this...am having fun but a long way to go..lol. It's nice to see these ideas to try.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful quilting, Leeanne--and I didn't even notice the fingers. : )
ReplyDeleteWow - the celtic knot sure is cool - does it just take lots of back-tracking? (or is there a magic path through the lines?) Very nice job!
ReplyDeleteYes the celtic knots are must haves!!!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful Leeanne - gosh what hours of work involved!!! It occurred to me that there must be lots of mathematics involved in what you do????? Doesnt sound like me at all!!!! Love the colours in the 1st quilt. Julie :-)
ReplyDeleteWow Leeanne, your quilting is amazing. This quilt really showcases your work perfectly!!
