so these are the two latest quilts i quilted for the stitchin' sallies. they are from a class i taught to them last year (?) from the book 'cutting curves from straight pieces' (what a mouth full book title huh?) the book is no longer in print i believe...(at the time of the class, they were having a hard time finding it)...
i did my cotton candy E2E on both....i used a grey blue thread on this one. it looked like a no match on the cone, but it really did look nice on the quilt...it's called copenhagen....
i like that it shows in places....look how pretty it is in the black inner border....since they are charity quilts i can explore ideas....play with thread colors on different quilts...
this one i used a black and white variegated....and i used a medium grey named 'graphite' in the bobbin...same E2E....
i like the contrast of the thread on this one as well...i like that the quilting shows. the quilt looks quilted, but in a subtle way. it doesn't scream....i'm not feeling very well today- woke up with a migraine today...*grr* wish i knew what triggered them so i could have a little warning it was wanting to visit....
