February has seen a return to quilting and the first quilt I would like to share this year is a beautiful white and indigo quilt made by Peney, one of my regular customers. Peney has a love of Japanese fabrics and this, combined with her immaculate piecing has resulted in yet another gorgeous quilt.
We decided to quilt an orange-peel motif in each of the indigo squares. The orange-peel was then continued into the white sashing together with some curved lines and swirls. An added bonus of this quilting design was that it could be quilted continuously.
I love the secondary designs which have been created in the sashing around the indigo squares - the quilting seems to draw your eyes around the quilt.
Peney's quilt has made for a great start to 2013 - I hope to share many more wonderful customer quilts this year.
Love this, its looks complex but when you break it down its quite simple. Beautiful, I'm sure Peney will love it.
