All Drezzed Up


Becki made this version of 'All Drezzed Up' by Diane Harris


These are the before quilting pictures.


And this is a quilting in progress picture. She used vintage feed sacks and other vintage fabrics along with chenille to outline each block. 


I LOVE the look of the double lines radiating out from the block. I echoed the outside of the smaller plate and added a swirl in the center.


And in the alternating blocks- curls, more outlining and pebbles in the centers.


The original pattern has scalloped outer edges, and Becki wanted to do the same. So, not knowing where exactly where the curves were going to land, I quilted with a half feather on the inside and filled in with pebbles along the outer edge so that no major design elements would end up on the cutting room floor.













I just love how this quilt turned out! Thanks Becki!
