Fall 2009 Quilt Festival
My entry for parkcitygirl's quilt festival is this wee quilt made from Amy Butler's Midwest Modern 2 fabric. The fabrics are actually left over from some other projects and i just sewed this together without any plan.
Then my mom (I call her the master beginner machine quilter) took a very plain quilt top and turned it into something fabulous!
The quilt came to life. I love that about quilting. You can never guess what the final product will look like.
This is quilted differently in every section. Wavy lines and curlicues give lots of movement to the already fun fabric.
What turned out to be a scrap quilt to practice machine quilting became one of the best wee quilts I've made yet.
