This is the first of 4 Hunter Star quilts I have to do the quilting on in the next 6 weeks. This beauty was made by Karen's mom who lives in Fort St. John and whom I have not yet met (and don't even know her name). I must admit I'm always a bit jittery quilting for a first time customer, never mind for someone I've never met.
Ths quilting is freehand double swirls. I thought the swirls would be a real nice contrast to the linear lines in the Hunter Star and I think I was right. I must admit I am pretty happy with the outcome, now let's hope Karen's Mom likes it. The batting was Hobbs 80/20 to give the quilt a nice medium loft and the thread was a wonderful dark grey to lite variegated - Tutti by Wonderfil (perfect choice Karen).
