One more finished

This quilt is finally finished.  It took all of yesterday to do the one remaining border.  Quilting this took a lot longer than I thought it would.

I did a leafy design on the outside border.

Here is a view of the design from the back.

I did a flower and leaf vine on the second border.  (the one that my eyes see as two)

A view from the back.

I did a loose outline around the outside edge of the faux applique and double echo around that.

This is from the back.

I did a leaf design on the corner stone blocks.

I did a triangle leaf design on the setting triangles.

A view of it from the back.  I like that design.  I’ll probably use it again in another quilt sometime.

I did an outline of the outside edge of the faux applique blocks and a double echo around that.

I did line dancing on the pieced blocks.

From the back too.

This person really likes minimal quilting on her quilts.  I had to repeatedly fight the urge to quilt it heavily because there seemed to be tons of places where I could have done tiny designs.  The backing is a painted white on white design.  This type fabric will often cause the stitching to look bad until it’s washed.  Washing softens up the painted part so the stitching relaxes into the quilt. 

Another quilt is loaded on the machine and waiting for me.
