L's Huge Sampler and more

This quilt has been hanging about in my studio longer then usual...my most prolific topper bumped this one for some others....she wasn't fond of it.   Or more specifically she was more fond of some other quilts. Sometimes when quilts are this large it's hard to grasp it all. This  has some wonderful blocks and is a very large quilt. I quilted an open feather for the body and and a veined feather  for the borders. It is a great looking quilt...quilting makes it a quilt.

This next one is very metallic with golds, taupes and browns.  It's quilted with a golden brown PolyNeon thread by Madeira 
Fussy cut Oriental Motif
And you all thought I was taking it slow....ha! Happy Quilting,

Back at work....Star Sampler

Summer is over in a flurry of activity and then back to quilting.....
The colours in the photo, do not do this quilt  justice, the red is a very rich colour and the blue/green is one of those happy colour surprises it just don't show in these photos....
 Lots of stitch in the ditch, filler stitch and filled vine in the red sashings.  It's a lovely piece, on either side.

Happy Tuesday,
gudrun
