30's prints

I'm very happy with how this quilt turned out. 

The 30's prints were a lot of fun to look at while I quilted. The quilting designs suit the pattern nicely and the cross hatching in the appliqué border is very traditional.

This beautifully appliquéd quilt was a pleasure to quilt.

It is finished with a scalloped edge (which was trimmed after quilting).

I did curved cross hatching and curly cue feathers to add to the appliqué design.

Dancers - Victorian Feathers

The dancer figures in this wall hanging are from a pattern by Carol Bryer Fallert.

I learned to do these Victorian Feathers in a class this summer with Karen McTavish.

I loved how it turned out.
