Hugs and Kisses with Pantograph Quilting

sheri5
This is Sheri’s second Hugs and Kisses quilt that she has asked to me to quilt, you can see her first one that I custom quilted here.  We decided to use a panto on this one and I chose Popcorn.    Picking thread was tricky and my first though was to use a medium green but once I laid out a dark purple thread that matched the diamonds it became clear that was the way to go.   I used Purple So Fine thread on top and Beige Bottom Line on the back.

  1. I love how the color choices emphasize the pattern: in this one the purple diamonds pop up very strongly, whereas in the lighter version the grid pattern plays the main role. And of course both have a marvellous quilting on top of it all!

  2. The Quilt has wonderful colours. And I love the Popcorn Panto so much, I too have a Customer Quilt right now, where I quilt Popcorn.

  3. I'm totally amazed at how different the quilts look with the purple vs white diamonds! You totally deserve that many re-pins!

  4. Really great and it does look totally different with the darker diamonds.

  5. It's a nice quilt with fun colors and wonderful quilting. I'm not surprised it's re-pinned that much. :)

  6. the quilting is so good on this quilt. it looks so much more special than the quilts that are 'all over' quilted with a generic pattern running across the fabric lines.
