Machine Quilting

Over the last few days this is what I have been doing....  working on my friend Rosemary's quilt.  I have all the sashing done now... outlined all the applique and worked on two blocks.

Not too sure yet how I will do all the blocks - maybe I will put the applique in the circles and do something different in the middle bit to suit the apploique peices......not sure
The sashing...Free motion - though I did sketch it first roughly :)

Now I am off to get some cooking done - I have guests for the weekend.

  1. Is this work on your new sewing machine - looking good - looking forward to what you come up with for the other blocks and the circles are great, just setting off the butterflies

  2. Wow!! I like how you have echoed around the feather around the applique. The funky feather vine you are doing on the sashing is similar to what I am doing on a border at the moment.
