quilted panel

This quilt was made by Megan for a shop sample for The Country Yard

The fabric line is from Red Rooster Fabric's, designed by Jacqueline Paton called " Weed's n' Tweeds'.
Megan drew her inspiration for this quilt from a Chookshed pattern called " The Breakfast Creek Swag".
In the Chookshed pattern the top section is an appliquéd house, but I think the panel looks great too. I did simple quilting, straight lines, cross hatching using a Gunold variegated thread & a loose meander using 'Sew- Art invisible thread for the top panel.
This will be available as a kit at The Country Yard.  

hello July!

Pam is a new customer of mine, so when she gave me this quilt & said you quilt it how you like, I was careful not to do too much quilting, I just needed to test the waters. I am always interested to see new customers first reactions when they pick up a quilt from me the first time. It can be a bit nerve racking, it is quite a big responsibility to quilt for someone. Any how Pam was happy :-)
I made couple of my own stencils for this quilt & didn't do too much quilting. I used 'Sew Art' invisible thread for the ditches & the rest of the quilting was done with Maderia's Poly Neons.....my favourite threads so far.
