2016 Show Quilt – Mission Accomplished!!

2016 Show Quilt - "Red Stars in a Midnight Sky"

2016 Show Quilt – “Red Stars in a Midnight Sky”

2016 quilt detail1Last week I finished my show quilt, this quilt took many hours to quilt as I challenged myself to have it nearly 100% quilted using my computerized system with digitized designs.

I have completed the Quilt Show Entry forms and have named the quilt “Red Stars in a Midnight Sky”.

Custom computerized quilting is a much slower process than free-motion quilting but opens up many more possibilities for designs (who wants to free-motion hundreds of segments for a custom design.. but using the computerized system required realigning every segment to ensure very accurate placement of the designs I chose and updated for use in the quilt.

Now back to quilting for clients!

Quilting full-time is great – I have worked down my backlog and am currently able to get quilts back to customers within 2 weeks!
