If you are reading this post, either you are a regular reader of my blog or you come from the Blogger’s Quilt Festival. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you’ll enjoy what you’ll see. Also, thanks to Amy from Amy’s Creative Side for organizing this event and to her sponsors for all the lovely prizes. This is a great way to get to know more quilters and be inspired.
It’s the first time I participate in the festival. We are allowed to submit two quilts. For my second one, I decided to add my Bursting Star quilt to the Home Machine Quilted Quilts category. I did this quilt with half-square triangles leftover from other projects. If you want to know a little more about this quilt, read these posts: here, here and here.
I decided to submit a quilt in the quilting category because this is a part of quilt making I’m enjoying more and more. And it is something I want to continue to improve. I submitted this quilt because it is the quilting I did that I’m the most satisfied with up to now.
Below are some pictures I took while I was quilting it. I did a boxy allover design combined with some chain squares for the borders.
Here is a little close-up of the quilting after the quilt was washed.
I used some a bamboo/cotton blend batting and it felt so soft. I hope the little baby who got it feels that too!
you did a great job.
It looks great!
I really like your quilt-great job! I love the look of quilts after washing them too.
Really nice! I like your pattern and the quilting is great! I'm sure the baby loved it!
Yeah! Your practice paid off! Good luck!
It's beautiful! I absolutely love your quilting.
Very nice job on the quilting. I love it!
I am so glad you entered. This quilt is wonderful, and your quilting is perfect. I am always impressed with those who can quilt on a domestic sewing machine. I was never able to master that. This is so nice. So glad you entered.
I love how you did bigger boxes in the border. This looks great.
What a wonderful , it is beautifully quilted as well:)))
I love that star – so pretty! The quilting looks great, especially all crinkled up.
C'est superbe, Josée! Félicitations!
It looks great! Wonderful colors and design as well 🙂
