This is Wendy’s quilt and she adapted this quilt from a pattern called The Swirl by Louisa Smith in the book Strips and Curves. The quilt measures 65” x74” and the design is a large scale swirl set in a random pattern. Wendy made it for a raffle quilt for a small AIDS health unit in Winnipeg called Nine Circles. I hope this will be a great fundraiser for this group and that they raise a lot of money!
I used the Allium panto as it has large scale swirls to add over all texture to the quilt. Quilters Dream Blend batting and a medium green So Fine thread.
This is absolutely gorgeous! I love the colour and the movement!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilt, and quilting!
ReplyDeleteHI Kathy! Beautiful quilt! Would it be possible for Wendy to post here, or email me, on how to buy tickets for this quilt raffle? I'd love to win this quilt and also support a local charity. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteLove this quilt! And your quilting really looks awesome on it. Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteOh my that is a really great quilt but not something I'd ever attempt to make.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome quilt! I have the book, but it has never crossed my mind that the patterns are applicable for "whole" fabrics instead of strata...
ReplyDeleteAwesome quilt! Beautiful quilting!
ReplyDeleteMolto bello!
ReplyDeleteCiao
Beautiful quilting, Kathy! Funny note, this is the exact pattern that I'm going to be using at my next retreat! Obviously a popular trend. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat an unusual quilt! Just gorgeous!!
