I have 12 blocks to quilt in my latest quilt. There are 3 different blocks in each corner. I started by machine quilting this pinwheel star. I have tried making this picture clearer but nothing is working! I've taken 3 different pictures but they all look the same. I think you can make out the leaf shapes. There are leaf shapes over each blade of the pinwheel as well as around the pieced 8-pointed star.
There are nice examples of continuous line quilting ideas. I did this block using 2 different lines. I used one for the inside of the pieced pinwheel and one for the outside. It went very fast especially since I didn't have to mark anything.
I left the quilt on the floor of my family room. My cat, Lily, has decided to take a nice nap on it! Oh, well, I can clean up later!
I'm linking up over at Leah Day's blog. Check it out! Fridays are always fun over there!
I can see it a little. looks good to me. I need to practice some quilting myself. making mug rugs at the moment. nice and small.
ReplyDeleteI love practicing on small pieces. So fun! Mug rugs are great for gifts too!!
DeleteI see it! Lovely! It's so frustrating when technology will not behave. :) Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI think I had it on HDR. May try not using that next time. I thought iPhones were supposed to be so great! Not true!!
DeleteYou made a great choice of quilting design for that block. It really enhances the pinwheel effect.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I was hoping for! Thanks!!
DeleteOh I do love that design--man, you are really moving forward with the free motion quilting--looks super...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteIt's still a struggle at times but I just keep at it. I don't want to give up on it!! Thanks!!
