Four Patch Charm Quilt #5

em5
This week I’m sharing Eileen’s Four Patch Charm quilt with you.     I thought it was time I quilted it a bit differently than the one I did in my tutorial.    She did say I could quilt feathers but this doesn’t feel like a feather quilt to me.  So I changed it from pebbles with the odd swirl to lots of swirls and some pebbles.  Not a huge change but  I really like how it looks as it reminds me of swirling water on a beach.

Eileen used all batiks on the top and blue Stonehenge on the back.  I used beige and brown So Fine thread on top and a medium blue on the back.   I love how the quilting shows up on the back.

I was really surprised to come across this pin on Pinterest.   One pin of my Four Patch Charm quilt has been repinned 10,362 times! Wow!
