Margo wanted custom quilting and for me to do whatever I wanted. That's fun when it's such a cute quilt!
It's hard to find a thread color for these Japanese taupe/browns. Brown thread looks too brown, grey thread looks too grey. I finally found the perfect mucky greyish brown from Superior Masterpiece - #181 called Nightscape. Masterpiece is 50w cotton, not a thread I would use on a bed quilt but for a wall hanging it works fine.
Cecelia waited a long time for me to get to her humongous quilt! This will be a shop sample for her quilt shop in western Kansas.
I thought this quilt needed some curves.
Oh my gosh! Once again you have done magnificent quilting!! Love both quilts but the first one is my favorite!!
