School has begun and I am back at it, trying to catch up. I did manage
to complete 3 quilts so far this week but I can only show you 2 of them.
I have been quilting coverlets for a local drapery store. This fabric
is a light tan color but it is so beautiful. I am very tempted to make
my own coverlets for my bed.
There were 2 coverlets measuring in at 94″ x 114″, if I remember
correctly. Minimal quilting was the request but I am discovering
that this is hard for me. I love complicated designs but I did
manage to keep it simple.
A light tan Omni polyester thread was used for the top and the
backing. I stitched around the big motifs so that there would
be some puffy areas.
The backing consisted of a light polyester solid fabric. Can
you see the stitching lines?
Here is a close up of the motifs.
It was also a very exciting day for me, as my
new business cards showed up.
The background is supposed to be teal but it
looks more like a dark blue to me, on the monitor
here. I am mostly pleased with them but the lettering
and phone number could be a bit larger. Oh well, live
and learn.
Have a great week.
