"Patricia" by Suzanne

This beautiful bed runner was made by my girlfriend and quilting buddy Suzanne.  Now Suzanne is a fairly new quilter and when she told me she was going to piece this pattern I must admit I thought maybe she had bit off more than she can chew.  But this just shows the tenacity of our Suzanne as she did an awesome job.  This will be a special gift for one of her sisters - how wonderful.

The pattern is by a local designer here in Calgary - Wayne Kollinger.  Please have a peek at his blog - he does some gorgeous stuff.  http://waynekollingersquiltblog.blogspot.ca/

The quilting on this bed runner is stitch in the ditch around the ribbons and a small fill in the background.  I used a fairly small freehand funky heart, leaf and swirl quilting design.  The batting was Hobbs 80/20 and the thread was Invisifil 100w by Wonderfil.

    Thanks for the shout out.

    It's nice to see Suzanne's version of Patricia. You did a great job of quilting it.

    I don't get to see what other people do with my patterns often enough, so I am delighted to have the opportunity
