Back in June I was getting antsy about my husband leaving with the army again so I decided I needed a project to work on that didn’t require any brain power on my part – interpret that as I didn’t want to have to do any quilty math – which designing my own patterns require. Sometimes it is nice to have all the math and figuring out done for you. This quilt was one that I started working on with my wonderful friends, Vicki of Orchid Owl Quilts and Shanna of Fiber of All Sorts, being two of my closest friends, they knew what I was going through and gave me the go ahead to move forward without them. I will likely make a second quilt with them at a later date.
This is the Metro Scope pattern using the Quick Curve Ruler, ruler and pattern by Sew Kind of Wonderful
After I finished Linelle’s quilt I decided to pull this puppy out and get it quilted!
I decided to use this quilt to showcase my skills with ruler work and custom quilting.
Today I am going to work on the sashing between the blocks. I cannot wait to get this quilt off the frame and photograph it properly. These pictures were all taken with my iPhone. I swear the quilt looks way better in person. Also, the last three were taken with my phone at night.
If you like what you see in my custom quilting please contact me, I want to quilt for you and bring your quilt to life in a way that fits with your artistic vision! If you like my quilting but want something a little less dense, I do more basic designs too!
Have a wonderful and happy Hump Day!
Wow! Each block is different and just beautiful!
Wow, Melissa. It looks like you have been quilting for YEARS! These are so beautiful, and now I have to make a quilt worthy of that kind of quilting. In the meantime, you’ll do some of my less worthy ones. LOL
Melissa, your quilting is beautiful! I am really impressed with your skills and creativity. I will definitely keep you in mind when I need a top quilted.
