Barb asked if I would quilt her satin Angel Baby quilt and I just love how it turned out. She pre-marked the pattern onto the satin so I just had to stitch it out. I had never quilted on satin before and was a bit worried how that would go but I had no problems. If you have never seen this pattern before it is designed by JoAnn Hoffman and you can find the paper or digital patterns here
The quilt is designed so you can lay a baby on it and take their picture so the baby has a halo and wings....the idea is soooo cute! I didn't have a baby to lay on this one so here is a picture from JoAnn's website. She also has a Butterfly version.
Here is a close up of the one I quilted for Barb, she plans on take a picture of her granddaughter on it!
It is hard to tell it is satin in the above pictures so here is another one that shows the shiny satin better.
I also used two batts of Quilter's Dream Puff and that worked well as Barb wanted it to be nice and puffy.
Stunning!!! You did an amazing job, Kathy!! Boy you sure can't tell you were nervous cuz it looks perfect!!
