Spring-A-Ling Quilt


This is Patty's 2017 Designer Mystery BOM from the Fat Quarter Shop featuring fabric from the Spring-A-Ling Moda collection. I was very happy to hear she is keeping this quilt for herself and wanted it custom quilted.  Since it has a very traditional feel I had fun quilting it with a variety of feathers, curls, CC's, SID, cross hatching, stippling and loops.


I haven't quilted flowing feathers in awhile so really enjoyed that part and they fit in well in the setting triangles in the outer border.  


I used off white So Fine thread and Quilters Dream Blend batting.








Now I have to box it up and mail it back to Patty in Germany...that is always the hardest part, saying goodbye to these gorgeous quilts!

  1. This is so definitely a keeper, and from Germany and back again, it could well do a Road Show all on its own. Love the fabrics and a very detailed design, your feathered border is wonderful.

  5. I love all that you did to my cheery quilt! As this Mystery quilt progressed, I fell in love with it more and more; it made me happy. Now your machine quilting takes it to another level. Thank you so much for your creative eye that can see the possibilities! Thank you, Kathy!
