Have a gander at this lovely quilt I had the pleasure to quilt over the last couple weeks. Isn't it just splendid? It was pieced by Peggy Claggett. Mea Bernina in Lawrence, KS is currently doing it as a block of the month. They wanted it quilted with a more modern style so I had a go with miles of thread and 7 thread colors. almost all of the quilt is hand guided, but I used point to point to quilt the arches around the medallion.
I am always curious about how long it took someone to piece a quilt and this one totally blows my mind. It took Peggy about 9 months to put together, and it was done perfectly square. So when I think about taking 3 weeks to quilt, that seems about right. So without further ado lets have a bunch of pictures.
And of course a shot of the back. Look at all that pretty thread! Yummy.
OK, have the best Monday ever.
That is fantastic! Both the quilt and your quilting!!

ReplyDeleteI would have been terrified to quilt a quilt that took so long to make.
