Circling Sevenstar

Circling Sevenstar

This is my seventh Feathered Star Quilt and has very proudly just been named Best of Show in the Queensland Quilters Inc 2021 Show. In addition it also received the award for Best Professional Machine Quilting. Proud and excited is an understatement.

Shadow Quilting

Afternoon Shadows on Circling Sevenstar

I am fortunate to have a room that receives late afternoon sunlight through the windows. They do however make unusual colours of quilts. The back of this quilt is White Magna Glide Classics 1900+ metre of it.

When you take it off the frame and find you have missed a bit

There are those shadows playing colours again. 9 different colours of Glide #40 and two of Glide 60wt used for the quilting.

Real backing colour this time

I have Daylight lighting in my studio, plus 3 metres of windows on a northern wall. When you use your longarm table to sew on a hanging sleeve and for 3 random designs on the back the sleeve matched the facing.
