My Aunt Jane made these two small quilts and had me quilt them up for her. This one is obviously very patriotic and scrappy. I love it!
I quilted an all-over swirl and star design. For some reason I had it in my head to make the stars the non-crossing-over way. Which is a lot trickier to do let me tell ya. I thought they would be more visible this way, especially after echoing them too.
I noticed that sometimes here and there she used the wrong side of the fabric as a light. That is a good trick Aunt Jane!
And here's her Halloween quilt! Isn't it adorable?!
Naturally I thought of a feather spine for the borders, so I made it funky. As for the center I made a swirl with spikes echoed around them.
In the stars in the corners I quilted spider webs, but I failed to get a picture of it. Argh! Ah well, Aunt Jane loved them both! She sure has a lot of festive prints in her stash huh?
