I chose a quilting design called Pipeline that actually came with my computer software. I've used it a couple of times and I really like the texture it gives. I used an Omni thread in green and a poly bat that I bought on a roll from JoAnn Craft store. The roll was relatively cheap. I really like the definition it gives to the quilting. On the other hand, I prefer a cotton or a cotton/poly bat for my quilts. Although, considering this is going to Utah I'm sure the warmth associated with poly will be appreciated during winter!
Here's the closeup of the quilting. Lots of nice texture. I figure this quilt will be good for a boy or a girl.
Once again I've been very successful on my goals for the week.

June 4, 2018
Finish hand quilting Civil War Quilt
Work on OMG project
Begin prep on Beachside Bungalow quilt
Quilt 2 customers' quilts *Heck, I've finished 2 of the 4 I had to do so I might only get 1 done this week. It's bigger than the others so will take me longer. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!
That's it for me now. I'm linking up with my regular blogs: Oh Scrap, Monday Making, Main Crush Monday, and Moving It Forward. (I'm posting this Sunday night, I know amazing that I am ahead of the game this week! I'll edit it Monday to add all of my regular links.)
Happy Quilting All! Bonnie
I like the turquoise and sage green border. Nice quilting, too!
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is adorable: I like the texture the quilting give to the finished quilt.
ReplyDeleteVery cute finish. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! The poly batting really makes it nice and poofy. You're right about the colors being great for boys and girls. Somebody's going to love their new quilt :)
