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.
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!
ReplyDeleteThe Quilt has wonderful colours. And I love the Popcorn Panto so much, I too have a Customer Quilt right now, where I quilt Popcorn.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally amazed at how different the quilts look with the purple vs white diamonds! You totally deserve that many re-pins!
ReplyDeleteReally great and it does look totally different with the darker diamonds.
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice quilt with fun colors and wonderful quilting. I'm not surprised it's re-pinned that much. :)
ReplyDeletethe 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.
