Abby’s Quilt

 This is Abby’s amazing quilt. I love the soft mint green she chose for her background. She made it using the Designer Star Pattern by Lee. 

Swirls seemed to suit this quilt perfectly. (but really, what wouldn’t swirls look good on) I quilted it using the Outside In pantograph. I also used one layer of Quilter’s Dream Poly and a layer of Quilter’s Dream Wool for the batting. I love how the swirls really show up in the negative space with the two layers of batting. I have to admit, I didn’t really get the whole two layers of batting thing at first. However, now that I have tried it out, I have changed my ways. I am embracing this trend, for sure. I was also an exclusive cotton batting user, but I am digging the poly and wool. 

I hope it is okay that I have kind of turned my blog into a little bit of a show and tell for my customer’s quilts. I just get to see so many beautiful quilts each day, I feel it is a shame not to share them with you all, too. I also think it is interesting to see how all the different pantographs I have actually look like on a quilt.
