This quilt is a special order for her MIL for Christmas.
Her suggestions were: greens, browns, nature-y, with a splash of red. I used a purchased pattern that I altered for the splash of red and love this so much I have 2 more planned in other colors to sell.
A special label with all the family names.
Close-up of the quilting. I just played with the machine and had leaves, feathers, and vine/swirls for the quilting.

This quilt is for her son’s graduation and he helped with pattern selection, fabrics, and the quilting ideas. They make a great team! While this was waiting for a turn to be quilted, I had it hanging in my studio with all the waiting quilts. It was a joy to walk in my room and see the dramatic color and piecing of this hanging there.

Together they decided on variegated thread and a stars design in the quilting.
Even ready to be shipped out in a box, the quilt is lovely!
